I have not seen much discussion lately regarding the choice of the string, "scm" |
9 |
in this GLEP. I asked the author today on IRC, and he said he doesn't have a |
10 |
particularly strong reason for "scm" beyond historical reasons. |

Since we are stuck with the string once it is adopted, I think we should |
13 |
consider the choice carefully. Personally, I'd prefer "live", since it is what |
14 |
we've been calling these ebuilds for a long time, it's easier to remember (and |
15 |
more "catchy"), and it seems to carry the spirit of what we mean by these kinds |
16 |
of ebuilds. Also, there is a new in-ebuild property with the signifier "live". |
