I'm against b10-named. What if someone uses it for other purposes than DNS?

I think b10-core would be confusing (because we have other core components too).
And I don't know if -init isn't misleading, I'd expect something that is -init
to start up the thing and terminate itself. But that thing also shuts down
things. From the list, I like the -main most.

But I'd be OK with keeping Boss. And I kind of like the fact that the executable
is called „bind10“. After all, when I want to start it up, I want to start the
whole bind10, not just the boss.

With regards
