Choose a name reflecting the primary purpose, avoiding details that might change. If your primary aim was to extend FAI with some classes, which happen to be about setting up a LAN, then Paul's suggestion is better. ...but when the goal of the package is easy Debian deployment for a LAN - mentioning FAI only as a practical way to get there, your own suggestion is better. ...or perhaps simply debian-lan? Then if the project later grows big enough for splitting parts you could move the FAI classes into either debian-lan-config (or debian-lan-config-fai if there will also by then be e.g. a puppet flavor), and have "debian-lan" become a meta-package pulling both config, tool, documentation, monitoring etc. parts. Avoiding FAI in the name also better fits by secret plan¹ to have FAI be only one way of deplying Debian LAN - Boxer² being another. :-) - Jonas ¹ ...because "secret plan" sounds more cool than admitting that I have been too lazy to contribute even thoughts yet to Debian LAN project :-/ ² I am currently rewriting in Perl, but a somewhat working first implementation exist with a draft description at http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=collab-maint/boxer.git;a=blob;f=README -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist & Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private
