I have doubting whether I should call it hearts or gnome-hearts for some time actually. There's two reasons why I finally picked hearts.
1) I didn't wan't people to think that hearts is some kind of official gnome project, who all seem to have their packages prefixed with gnome-
2) There is currently no package in the archives named hearts. There exists an older hearts game for KDE [1] but it has not been actively developed for over two years and it's not in the debian archives. (OT: I reimplemented KDE Hearts' AI in my game and dubbed him Luis, after the KDE Hearts developer).
I'd like to know, is there is a package name convention for official and unofficial gnome packages?Any Gnome people have an opinion on this?
Anyway, I'm perfectly willing to rename the package to gnome-hearts if that is the consensus.
