Re: "devel vs "develop" There are very few technical merits to any of these choices, it's a usability issue. And I'm not qualified to express a useful opinion about usability issues. > > 2/ Should it be "develop/ide/netbeans/..." or "develop/netbeans/..." ? > Same for "eclipse" and "sunstudioexpress". > > From 1/ above, that should now be "devel/ide/netbeans/..." or > "devel/netbeans/..." and so on. > > From the discussion, I belive we should remove the "ide" part of > the name.

We've gotten feedback from within our organization that "ide" is not the most intuitive place. In the long run we want to split up Sun Studio into finer grained packages for compilers, debugger, etc. That will make it easier to assign sensible names. > > 3/ What should the "develop/ide/netbeans/dtrace/gui-plugin" be? > > I read the discussion between Stephen and Danek and I saw Stephen > concede, but somehow in all of the excitement, I wasn't exactly > sure what he was conceding to.

It includes Chime functionality. Your new proposed name is good. _______________________________________________ pkg-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-discuss
