Hi, when I created package for Microsoft Edit I took into account "edit" name at first, however I decided to use "ms-edit" for a few reasons:
- "edit" is really ambiguous name for a package - the program itself calls itself "Microsoft Edit" in about dialog - there are a lot of packages with "ms-" prefix that contain Microsoft software/assets, so it feels more consistent - "edit" is a common alias for default editor, in most distros it's defined ootb, so I didn't want to use "edit" as a binary name I don't see a reason why there can't be two packages, especially as they use two different binary names.
