- I was fine with iio - udio, for userspace-driven IO (my favorite should iio not make it) - idd, since it's called "Industrial device driver" (don't go about calling it iddqd)
more artistic ones: - iofu, for IO From Userspace, or, on 2nd thought, simply IO-fu (as in Kung-fu) - something else that's not related at all? /methinks of squid, which, from the name, does not suggest it would be a web proxy.
