To (hopefully) avoid confusion, can we make sure these names don't get used in any web pages or folder/file/image-names created for the release?
If that is already understood, then fine, but I thought I would chime in before it was too late. :-)
If people haven't already considered this, then my take on naming would be...
What's referred to above as "vexpress-a9", should be just "vexpress" - as it has been for the past several months - this build works on A9, A5, A15 (TC1), and A15/A7 (TC2).
And the above "vexpress-alt", should be "vexpress-tc2", as it is tuned for TC2, with big.LITTLE scheduling enabled and some power management features only available on TC2.
(In future months we may be able to go back to a single release image)
Jon,
Is it okay if we go with what we've been doing and take an action to shift the names at the start of the next cycle (right after this release)?
I was thinking more of the files, URLs, and web pages under http://releases.linaro.org/ which are yet to be created.
I wasn't trying to suggest that we rename build names used at https://android-build.linaro.org/, or manifest names, or git repo names. :-)
I wanted to make sure, for example, that the release page for "Versatile Express TC2" was at: http://releases.linaro.org/12.07/android/vexpress-tc2/ and not http://releases.linaro.org/12.07/android/vexpress-alt/
And if that page links to the build vexpress-ics-gcc47-armlt-staging-alt-open, I can't see anything wrong with that.
