The naming is the least of my worries right now. Before you start to rework the series can we please get the information about:
- what you want to achieve and why
- the design of your approach
so we can avoid staring at another series of 40+ patches just to figure out that something is wrong at the conceptual level?
We sort out the naming convention once we are done with the above.
Thanks,
