First of all, it is not a "proper naming standard". I always suggest to use SHOULD/MUST/etc words (RFC 2119) in "Porters' Handboook" to avoid any incomprehension. In current situation I prefer to treat "Please only use characters [-+._a-zA-Z0-9]" as "You SHOULD use characters [-+._a-zA-Z0-9]". Many committers do not like this "convention". Hence the above regex should be reviewed and extended. There is no technical problems with additional ":%" symbols. Patch names must be convenient, not procrustean. - -- Sergey Skvortsov mailto: skv@FreeBSD.org -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iD8DBQFD0Mk9RInQ7WebgRkRAlS5AJ0TO9btRCT4uaeMk0P2tn4u4WfvCACcC3zW nwaaMoJFN4rJk6nZT64E9Fk= =10yq -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
