Could you point me to the minutes of the session when this agreement was reached (who was involved in the discussion on this). I don't remember such agreement.

It came back few months later, but at this time, there was no valid
points in favor of it or not. Thus the current situation.

But having seen how the installer work,
- search for packages
- consistency, you have the same naming convention, so you don't have to
remember if it is a geant2 or ps-mdm or a development from a NREN.

I believe the current naming convention (PROJECT/INSTITUTION_NAME-IMPL_LENG-SERVICE_TYPE) is more open, descriptive and flexible. Service developers/maintainers, please, provide your opinions.


Roman

It make sense to have a single prefix and it will be ps-mdm, but for the
next release, not for this one (time constrains).

Yes it is.
So why don't all the packages follow this convention yet? Or am I wrong?
So? everybody is just going to ignore this question until there is a
major inconsistency at the release? interesting.

What specific thread is there?

Cheers,
