dpkg-dev-emacs vs. debian-changelog-mode vs...

[Roland Mas <mas@echo.fr>]

Whatever its name, the package is ready.  The only point my sponsor
wants to be settled down is the name of the package, precisely.

  My original idea was dpkg-dev-emacs.  debian-changelog-mode seems
too restrictive to me: when (if?) someone writes a
debian-controlfile-mode someday, it can be included into
dpkg-dev-emacs but not debian-changelog-mode (well, so it seems to
me).

  dpkg-dev-emacsen and dpkg-dev-el have been suggested too, I guess so
that Xemacs/EINE/ZWEI or other Emacs variants users are not
jealous.  I have no strong opinion for or against any one of these
names.

  My sponsor and I are only waiting for some consensus to be reached
before he uploads the package.  Consider this to be a RFC / CFD / CFV
/ whatever.  If noone reacts, I guess we'll consider that the
consensus has been reached on dpkg-dev-emacs.

Roland.
