But first letter should be lowercase, no? (yes, pun intended). :-) Pav, ports collection constitutes some ten years of maintaining open source software (largely diverse), and I do not think that we should either strictly adhere to any policy or ignore it. Natural evolution of all those little things, names included, is very important indicator of what our community feels (in its majority) about the way things should be carried out. What you seem to suggest goes against observable traditions and does not help to improve anything in any way. (Frankly, I still don't believe you're being serious here.) ./danfe
