Ok,

So should we change the names in CVS?  I think so, if we intend to keep
this long term (which I think we will).  Ok, I'm going to go ahead and
do this.

I agree. You have my vote!

We have a number of commands, scattered in a number of different places.
I sometimes even forget the names of certain commands, and have to go
look them up.  I would imagine I'm not the only one to which this
happens.

I've seen other packages that prepend each command with a letter, or the
package name (Ie: condor, which uses "condor_"), and I'm wondering if it
makes sense to do the same with SystemImager.

If we were to do this, we would provide symlinks for at least one major
release, to allow folks time to get used to the new names.

The primary benefit of doing this is that one could simply type "si_" then hit <Tab>, and see a listing of all available SystemImager commands
through the wonders of command name completion (with most shells).


What do you guys think?

Here's what the commands would look like:

   si_addclients
   si_cpimage
   si_getimage
   si_imagemanip
   si_lsimage
   si_mkautoinstallcd
   si_mkautoinstalldiskette
   si_mkautoinstallscript
   si_mkbootmedia
   si_mkbootpackage
   si_mkbootserver
   si_mkclientnetboot
   si_mkdhcpserver
   si_mkdhcpstatic
   si_mkrsyncd_conf
   si_mvimage
   si_netbootmond
   si_prepareclient
   si_pushupdate
   si_rmimage
   si_updateclient
