I looked at the another exiting CMF port www/cmfforum, and also at other
python ports eg. databases/PyGreSQL which use mixed cased
name convention. Zope/CMF have their own mixed cased naming
convention, and I thought it was better to follow than create
a new one as it would be easier to look for those ports.
Also Zope/CMF ports also have multiple words such as CMFPhotoAlbum,
CMFExternalFile, CMFFormController etc. These would become something like
zope-cmfformcontroller, zope-cmfexternalfile which isn't very readable.
I'm a first time porter, so I'm not sure what's best. Should it be:
zope-cmfformcontroller
zope-cmf-formcontroller
zope-CMFFormController
Please advice, and I will patch my PR's with the desired FreeBSD ports
naming convention.
