History

I (Thomas Levine) wrote pickle warehouse so I could easily store pickles in files with meaningful names. Then I extended it to support more than just pickles. Then I wrote picklecache, mainly for caching responses to HTTP requests.

And then I finally changed the names because these two packages don’t really have much to do with pickles. pickle_warehouse.Warehouse became vlermv.Vlermv, and picklecache.cache became vlermv.cache, which became vlermv.Vlermv.memoize. And I have substantially extended both of these since.

I chose the name “vlermv” by banging on the keyboard; this is how I have been naming things now that I have discovered Dada.
