It seems wuite intuitive to me. I also prefer longer names, if they are easier to remember and much easier to get some sense out of them, which I think is the case here.
It does not take longer time to get a sense for a shorter word. But directory listings have a chance to be readable and submitting URLs has a chance not to get broken if the path names are short.
I am talking of my experience, and for me it takes. But maybe it is just for me.
the length of
/pub/opensuse/distribution/openSUSE-10.2/repositories/source-non-oss/
already is really crazy and a pain for everyone who needs to spell or type it - a full line already, and still missing protocol prefix, hostname, arch suffix and filename.
/pub/suse/i386/9.3/ was a good path naming and length.
Well, one thing with be to remove openSUSE, ant it would be http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/10.2/repositories/oss Looks small enough to me!
