Hi,

just wrote my first python module build description and noticed that
most of the few python modules in our catalog follow a catalog name
naming scheme of

 py<modulename>

With regards to user experience and consistency could we change the
default/standard to be more like the perl modules which have
pm_<modulename>? So for python modules this would be:

 py_<modulename>

A question: Suppose the project's name is "pyfoo". (Like:
http://pyyaml.org/) If we had py_projectname, it would end up being
py_pyyaml. It looks a bit stupid. On the other hand, creating py_yaml
makes the catalog name not containing the project name. If I tried
doing pkg-get -a <projectname>, I wouldn't find the package. Which do
you think is better?

If it is a product called "pyyaml" I would expect it to be called "pyyaml", but it was a library I would expect "py_pyyaml" (given that libraries should be called "py_*").
