Hi,
let me add to this topic, since I have seen that also "gnome" apps, for
example, have different prefixes.
One think is of course the original application name, it may already
contain the library/framework/desktop name.

please use CSWgnustep-ftp as „gs“ usually means Ghostscript.

Do you insist on that? it has been called that way since 2 years.
Actually the program is just called "FTP" and I deemed the name too
generic.
I used the gs prefix for other GNUstep applications too: terminal,
price, & zipper.
What policy shoud we use? Keep the original name and use a prefix only
when necessary? Always use it?
gs- is much shorter and handier than gnustep- :)
The "core" gnustep packages have gnustep_ so we could stick to that too.
In that case it is however directly in the upstream package name,
gnustep-base/gnustep-gui/gnustep-back
at the moment we do have
Core framework:
CSWgnustep-back
CSWgnustep-base
CSWgnustep-gui
CSWgnustep-make
No prefix at all:
CSWgorm (graphical designer: dev tool)
CSWprojectcenter (IDE: dev tool)
CSWperformance (framework)
Assorted with the "gs" prefix
CSWgs-zipper
CSWgs-terminal
CSWgs-price
CSWgs-ftp
All the issue started because I deemed "ftp" and "terminal" too generic
as names.
Do we want to rename "everything" to CSWgnustep- ? just the ambiguous
one? keep CSWgs- instead but apply it to the ones which have no prefix?
Waiting for you,
Riccardo
