My opinion: I'm for a common prefix, but I don't like the gentoo- part. |
| 10 |
Reason: I don't think a gentoo- prefix would benefit so much if we |
| 11 |
already have a common config- and update- prefix, it just looks silly to |
| 12 |
me. Even in your specification you omit the gentoo- prefix for easier |
| 13 |
reading. It just makes the names longer, it doesn't help one bit with |
| 14 |
tab completion and it makes stuff gentoo specific, where do we draw a |
| 15 |
line between Gentoo specific tools and tools from packages that |
| 16 |
originated from Gentoo (portage being the big one here), should we |
| 17 |
rename emerge to gentoo-emerge? Maybe it makes some (IMO very limited) |
| 18 |
sense for new users, but for experienced users it's just more typing. |

In the beginning, there was nothing. And God said, 'Let there be |
| 26 |
Light.' And there was still nothing, but you could see a bit better. |
