Comment (by iwakeh):

 I agree, metrics-lib should be the one name.  DescripTor is too general.

 Regarding the package name the
 '[https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/java/package/namingpkgs.html
 standard]' suggests turning the hyphen into an underscore, which would
 result in `org.torproject.metrics_lib`. A package name that is cumbersome
 to type and looks odd.
 The additional sub-package `lib` is also not ideal; especially as there
 are `org.torproject.onionoo` and `org.torproject.collector` etc.
 What about simply choosing `org.torproject.metricslib` or even the very
 short `org.torproject.ml`?
 Other suggestions?
