Comment on Show HN: Investorsexchange.jl – parse trade-level stock market data in Juliaparent

I too am here for this reason also. I would change the name. It is an issue. Put a dash in it or an underscore... just something.

You would be surprised by just how many investors are looking for this type of surgery...many many people.

Underscore is (was?) illegal in domain names.

It's not illegal in domain names. Take a look at the SRV type in the domain name system. It's underscores galore.

However, for host names or for a URL's host component, you're limited to hyphens.

In this case though it's just the name of a Julia package[1], which isn't bound by either the rules of domain names or host names as .jl is not a TLD.
