I suggest this way: 1) rename bird -> bird-legacy and bird-devel -> bird2 2) keep this for quite a long time to let users manually change from bird-legacy to bird2 (one whole release cycle?) and not force them into upgrade 3) rename bird2 -> bird 4) drop bird-legacy when we stop supporting it Maria
