I thought we didn't do new upper-case port names on purpose?
It stems from HackageDB [1]. The port will be converted to a
bsd.cabal.mk [2] consumer soon.

I'm sorry, I don't understand this response. I realize that there are
some software packages that have upper-case letters in their names.
However, my understanding is that we are not using upper-case letters
for new portnames. Is my understanding incorrect?
My understanding is that the first letter must be lowercase, next
letters are allowed to be uppercase if there's a good reason ie.
upstream naming.
We have some existing conventions that don't conform to this rule, and
will affect the addition of new ports. The CRAN ports use R-cran-*,
and more of these ports will be added. Do you want us to move these
to r-cran-* ?
It's a guideline not a law.
No I don't think these need to be changed retroactively. Actually R is
such a well recognized software name while r means nothing, so I'd not
want to see math/R renamed either.
