Hi,
during the reviewing process of the new DB module for Berkeley, I made
proposal to make a naming convention for all the modules implementing
the DB API.
I suggest something similar as for the modules implementing the MI
interface, all having the "mi_" prefix. So, for the DB modules we should
use "db_" prefix:
db_berkeley
mysql -> db_mysql
postgres -> db_postgres
dbtext -> db_text
unixodbc -> db_unixodbc
flatstore -> db_flatstore
Does anybody see any drawback or problem if we rename the module before
1.3?
This change is resonable for me _if_ it will be thoroughly carried out. That
means in addition to the renaming of the directories its also necessary to
- update the existing module documentation (README files, devel index.html)
- fix the build process and the packaging
- update openser install documentation (INSTALL, wiki pages)
- add a note to the porting guide for 1.3
Cheers,
Henning
