Hi Kedar,
As these commands are being developed under the auspices of the
GlassFish project, would it not be possible to contact the module
owners, who must be known to us, to suggest that the command names be
consistent?
I realize that we do not have control over arbitrary 3rd-party modules,
but we do provide guidelines <
http://docs.sun.com/doc/820-7727/ghrpm> to
ensure consistency. In the interest of setting a good example to
contributors to the GlassFish project and owners of arbitrary 3rd-party
modules, should we try to follow our own conventions?
Regards,
-Paul
