Matt Foley commented on BIGTOP-316:
-----------------------------------

One of the benefits of monolithic packages is that you know the set of bits 
within is claimed to be self-consistent.  If that is split up into many 
packages, then I would like to at least be able to say "give me the version 
1.0.0 of all packages", and easily get them.  Furthermore, I need to be able to 
look at an installed system (in the field) and say, "yes, all the pieces are 
version 1.0.0" -- or alternatively, "here's the problem:  this piece is only 
version 0.20.204, but the other pieces are version 1.0.0, and that's not 
compatible."

While people are welcome to experiment with mix-and-match, it's going to be a 
minefield of late-found problems in the field.  Let's do whatever is necessary 
to make it easy to spot when mix-and-match has been attempted.  How do we 
address this?  Can a naming convention for the piece-wise packages help address 
the problem?
