I agree.

I propose that Tanya write up a summary of the 'rules' and pick a naming 
convention, sending it to this list.  That way she can get feedback from 
you (and others) and the wording can be folded into the new Developer 
Policy doc.

Sound reasonable Tanya?

Isn't it great that LLVM is growing to the point where people care about 
these things? :)
