Actually, I think I object to this amendment as it stands,
after reflection. Under the current policy, I always know where the
changelog is, upstream, or Debian. This new blurring of the name by
allowing mixde case makes for more confusion. I say that the name
should be allowed, as long as there exists a symlink so that people
looking for the debian's default location shall not be dissapointed.
A symlink is not that hard to create in the rules file. And
compatibility and consistency requirements are enough to
justify the loss of an inode.
