Naming of source packages (Was: [Pkg-ruby-extras-maintainers] rcairo -- Cairo bindings for Ruby)

[Lucas Nussbaum]

Hi,

Thierry's proposal to join the team with rcairo makes me wonder about
something : the naming of our library source packages.
Currently, we have two schemes in the Debian Ruby community :
A. ruby-something (think of ruby-gnome2), rsomething (think of rcairo),
   etc ... generally the same name as the upstream software.
B. libsomething-ruby (think of xmpp4r -> libxmpp4r-ruby, ruby-feedparser
   -> libfeedparser-ruby. yes, that's my packages)

Which one should we favor ? I personnally prefer (B), since it makes it
easier to go from binary package to source package.

Apart from that, I'd of course approve Thierry's join of the team. I was
the one who pointed it to pkg-ruby-extras.
