Distribution vs package naming about cookiecutter-pylibrary HOT 4 CLOSED

I guess the main reason I have this dist/package/project name distinction is that I don't always have a consistent scheme for all my projects:

• Sometimes the dist name I want is already taken on PyPI.
• Django projects have a differently styled project name. Pointless to have python-django-foobar yes?

About the dashes... it's just styling at this point. https://pypi.org/project/lazy-object-proxy/ is the same as https://pypi.org/project/lazy_object_proxy/

To put it differently: you'll see dashes more often than underscores in urls in general. I haven't given it much thought, just went with what people usually have in urls (dashes instead of underscores), sorry to disappoint :-)
