Alexey, this naming was discussed [1] _before_ i ever starting to add
all this ports and there was no strong objections (and this is not
prohibited anywhere in Porters Handbook, Committers Guide etc) about
this. The point is to name it as close as upstream do - the same policy
apply to p5 ports, so why there should be exception for py- ports?

About .core issue - i'm apologize. It's true. I was sure that this
restriction is just for files, not for directories.
So, as some bearded TV-character said, "Please understand and forrrrgive".
