           Summary: RFE: rename to "omake" (drop the "ocaml-" prefix).
           Product: Fedora
           Version: rawhide
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: medium
          Priority: low
         Component: ocaml-omake
        AssignedTo: rjones at redhat.com
        ReportedBy: aleksey at nogin.org
         QAContact: extras-qa at fedoraproject.org
                CC: rjones at redhat.com, fedora-ocaml-list at redhat.com
    Classification: Fedora


OMake does not require OCaml at runtime (only at build time) and can be used
(and often used) for compiling pure C/C++ projects without any OCaml in them.
The current name implies that OMake is a part of OCaml world - while in fact
OMake is an independent tool, that just happens to be written in OCaml and is
also happens to have a build recipes library for compiling OCaml projects.

Also, the "legacy" package that I have provided for years was always called
"omake".

TIA!

P.S. I am one of the OMake co-authors.
