What is your opinion about this name. Would you agree if we used the
same in Debian ?
That's not a bad idea. The existing name is hideous frankly and it's
just "getting around to it" that's prevented me picking something
else. libstaden-read I like as it has a namespace I can use for
others too.
When I read the first mail of Charles I've thought "Oh no, not
'libread'".
So I really agree with libstaden-read and it is good to know that
other
distributors tried a reasonable rename. Lets try to stick
compatible with
these - and perhaps we could release this upstream soon.
Wow - stop the presses. Everyone agrees with each other. This has to
be some sort of record in any Debian-related community. :-)
Oh, and for the record, libstaden-read gets the thumbs up from me, too.
