Ok. Although, I would like to know too what those circumstances may be?!

Ok. No problem!

Yeah, I know! I guess we have to pick a re-naming convensions. The ones that
I can come up are:

a) "app-name", "app-name~", "app-name~~".....

b) "app-name", "app-name-1", "app-name-3".....

I prefer a) but, maybe there is a better one?!
