The herd naming issue has surfaced in more detail again - there were already two comments that it is beneficial to keep -sci in herd names. I originally suggested that we drop it (and in general go with a "catchier" names), but now it looks like I am slowly turning towards being more conservative myself :). That is to keep sci- and possibly resembel category names as much as possible. The reasoning: making life easier on bug wranglers and on everybody trying to search for the sci-related maintaince info or just to see the relationship between different packages.. Any thoughts?
(A comment towards users, as they seemed to react to this issue more then devs last time. This is a completely internal stuff that you are not supposed to see or care about, unless you are willing to become a developer and maintain packages of course ;). This does not concern how the categories are named (nothing happens there actually, well, except for a few possible splits)). Anyway, I'd say it is best for the actual maintainers to decide for every herd. However if we have upwards of two herds retaining sci or following category naming I think it makes sense for all to keep it all consistent and follow.. George -- [email protected] mailing list
