Hi everyone,

I'd be in support of camel-case filenames, or any other naming scheme
for that matter to make things consistent. For example, we could go
the other way and follow the C++ standard not not even using camelCase
(ie, vector, priority_queue, ...). I know this has been decided and
is beating a dead horse, thought I'd throw it out there.

This should be fine, unless the filesystem is autoconverting upper to
lower or vice-versa (in which case it doesn't matter what we do). There
are plenty of projects out there that have camel-case names in them
and work on many platforms.

Well, as long as we have a convention I think we can easily avoid
this, and as Monty said, we'll never be creating a session.h and a
Session.h per the convention. :)
