Hello,

My question is mainly for Marc, but as I suspect other people may have the 
answer, or be interested in it, I'll ask here.

In the process of updating and cleaning my home installation of vim, I've 
notice a few regressions.
The typical one is that I cannot do a ":UpdateAddons lh-cpp" any more.

So, I've looked in scmsources.vim and see that the plugin seems to be still 
referenced, but under an obfuscated number (the script id from vim.org where I 
no longer update anything) instead of a comprehensible name, that is lh-cpp.

So what is VAM (new?) policy ?
Are plugins to be registered under obfuscated numbers ? Can't we have any more 
an human-friendly id if we made the "error" of publishing the script on vim.org 
a decade ago?

As you can see, I'm clearly in favour of using names by default (when there is 
no conflict -- i've would have named my plugin lh-{name} if not to prevent 
conflicts), and script-id in last resort. Can we change the policy to that one?


BTW, i'm perfectly aware of a problem here as my fork of mu-template have 
nothing to do with the original mu-template, except it can read and expand 
legacy template-files, and that I've kept the name. I'm afraid someday I'll to 
find another name as the fork is required to support all the advanced templates 
from lh-cpp -- and thus it needs to be easy to install it thanks to vam.
