Yes for strict naming convention. No for restricting it to just whiteboard_apacheid. I would vote for a convention like: whiteboard_apacheid_projectname. With GitHub, we get unlimited amount of space and unlimited number of repos. There is no need to restrict ourselves to one repo per committer. I dont see any pros with restricting. > Fred, do you want "_developerToolSuite" added to the name because you may > want a different whiteboard for a different topic later?

This workflow makes life so much easier.
