Good, let's do it.
If my Eclipse error log is complete it's a matter of renaming at a very
minimum say 25 files (or the corresponding dirs ofc). But it would be
much nicer to have a consistant naming for the entire directory
structure. I would definately vote for renaming the classes that test
class Xxxx to XxxxClass instead of Xxxx_ because I think the first name
is more descriptive and would confuse mauve newcomers less.
I'd say, go with XxxClass to rename the classes, rather than
packages/directories. Can you send in a patch?
As for consistency, I guess one could spend a lot of time arguing for
the most consistent naming of all the test cases, but ... let's just
leave it as it as long as no pressing reason comes up, and do the
minimally invasive thing. When someone wants to check out mauve on a DOS
FAT file system, we can worry about the 8+3 naming limitations then, for
example.
