OK.  I was wrong.  Coad only argues why "I" prefixing is better than
ible/able/er suffixing.  The interface naming section I was remembering as
being detailed instead talks about non prefix/suffix naming issues like
naming interfaces based on their functionality (kinds of classes, kinds of
behaviors, object models, roles, etc).  I personally don't use the "I"
convention in Java.  However in COM, I found it to be very valuable in order
to find out which references were to components and which references were to
language classes.  I have not found the same utility in Java.  Generally,
the quick access to type declarations in most Java IDEs makes my only use of
the "I" convention worthless.  So for me, Java marked the end to "I"
interface convention and Hungarian.
