.. Understood.  My preference is not for a third, new convention.  The one used 
in the RPMs is OK (modulo my comments in another thread, which I not pursuing 
for now).  My target is pages like:

   "http://wiki.wocommunity.org/display/documentation/Deploying+on+Amazon+EC2";

      which are not consistent with your (and my) choice for the RPMs.
