It's not stupid to respect the naming of other people's work.  FreeBSD
is FreeBSD, not freebsd, and -CURRENT was -CURRENT not -current.  If
you referred to me as 'kevin' repeatedly I would assume you are lazy
and not really care.  If you insist on it in code or documentation
it's disrespectful.  Software naming is not our choice.  To prepare a
gong show where some things follow proper naming and others don't so
you get publicly shamed.. I won't stand for that.  Please write the
rules in the Porter's handbook and explain why and when there is a
distinction and we won't need to have discussion, you can point
contributors to a link in the future.
