The binary package name "solid" is still available, but there is already 
a completely unrelated package src:solid in Debian:
  https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/solid

This has to be sorted out if this software actually gets packaged,
I am retitling the RFP to a temporary name to make it clear that
this is something different.[1]

[1] If it builds a binary package solid there would be benefits
    in renaming the other src:solid (the BTS handles binary package
    in a different source package than a source package of the same
    name very poorly), but this should be discussed when it becomes
    relevant.
