Good. But. There are too many things to be renamed: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=659047 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=652718 http://mentors.debian.net/package/rpg http://sourceforge.net/projects/rpg/ i.e. bugrports on sponsorship-requests and wnpp packages alone with projects on mentors and sourceforge sites.

Most of users won't dig into such huge heap. It is better to use for this purpose dedicated, but still shared, united) archive. The http://mentors.debian.net/debian/ is good candidate. > This said, it is good to pick a unique name in advance, and "repagen" I agree, naming is important problem not only for Debian packages, but at all in our life and technology. *************************** ### Vladimir Stavrinov ### vstavri...@gmail.com *************************** -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-mentors-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
