So how does this progress?

We have had three suggested naming conventions, thanks to Toshio 
Kuratomi, with most of the weight leaning on #2, to recap them:

1) Ignore the enduser confusion and go with Ralf's naming:
i386-rtems4.7-binutils-2.16.1-0.20051229.1.fc6.i386.rpm

2) Namespace the whole thing:
cross-i386-rtems4.7-binutils-2.16.1-0.20051229.1.fc6.i386.rpm

3) Play games with the '-' to avoid the "it's an rpm separator" association:
i386_rtems4.7_binutils-2.16.1-0.20051229.1.fc6.i386.rpm


So far, there has been no resolve. Do we need to have more people have a 
say? Is this a storm in a tea cup?

Thanks

Michael
