Note that Paul requests keeping the suffixes, but I guess that's predicated on renaming the top level.
The main reason I like having a suffix of some kind is so that it's obvious which series it's from by the filename. If someone includes that filename (without path) in a bug, or just has it lying around their system, it's good to be able to determine that kind of information having just the name of the file.
Ah, changing the directory names on snapshots.linaro.org doesn't change the filenames of the images/hwpacks, so that's ok.
Having said that though, if they are different then it means that we have to keep the requests to IS for new syncs to snapshots.linaro.org.
Another thing that this brings up is landing team hwpacks. Am I correct in assuming that those kind of exist outside of any series? Would it, perhaps, make more sense to separate hwpacks and images out at the top directory, and break it down by series under that?
They do exist at a series, but the series isn't really important (the same is true to some extent for non-LT hwpacks too.)
Thanks,
James
