Hi, I wanted to close bug 548676 ("mail_settings vs. mailsettings name inconsistency"), however, I found that we do not have any unique conventions of how to name a packages. We have packages:
- with underscore in the name: yast2-webclient-patch_updates - with dash: yast2-webclient-custom-services - withoutwordseparators: yast2-webclient-systemtime
... so, shouldn't we unify it? Dash looks good in the name, because we have it already in the "yast2-web" part, but than we cannot find a consistency with controller/model names, which should have underscores or nothing.
(un)fortunately, RPM is not integrated with Rails, so we do not need a strict consistency between Rails names and RPM names. We have dashes in the yast2-web prefix already, so let's use dashes. "system time" is a bad name. In the same spirit we could have system language, system users, system patches... -> use "time". But please only next week, I feel we will have enough fun already putting B3 togetter. -- Martin Vidner, YaST developer http://en.opensuse.org/User:Mvidner Kuracke oddeleni v restauraci je jako fekalni oddeleni v bazenu
