a question about the kernel naming scheme (once again)

wouldn't it be better just to name the i686-4G kernels enterpreise,
like in :
xxxx-enterpreise
xxxx-enterpreise-smp

and one thing more
wouldn't it e better for vanilla kernels to use 
kernel-vanila and not kernel-[ current? maintainer ]
we have currently 2.4-marcelo & 2.2-linus, may be aslo 2.6-linus
Linus actually doesn't maintain 2.2 ( and will leave 2.6 when it's ready to
Andrew)

so i think it would be better to name all them -vanila
instead of
2.2-alan (he wanted find a new maintainer ?)
2.4-marcelo 
2.6-andrew
