We need to verify, but I do not think that the Apache github repository
supports directories
Technically, NuttX is NOT a kernel in most build modes. A kernel is a
very specific architectural implementation involving protected
resources: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kernel_(operating_system) .
The Linux kernel is a kernel. NuttX can be a kernel in the protected
and kernel build modes, but in general, NuttX is not a kernel so any use
of kernel in the naming would be wrong in most cases.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kernel_(operating_system)
More correctly Linux (and NuttX in protected and kernel modes) is a
monolithic kernel.
Even worse usage is when NuttX is occasionally called a micro kernel
which is most certainly is not. A microkernel is an architectural
alternative to a monolithic kernel:

nuttx and nuttx-apps for me too. For the hyphen, as it was said before
people can clone the repo under any name they want. We've been doing
this ever since we joined the incubator and this is how we're
instructing people too:

We discussed this option a couple of years ago and decided against
it. I
was VERY strongly opposed to the idea then and I still am.
- apps is NOT part of NuttX. It is an achitecturally unrelated,
mish mash
or useful applications for NuttX, but it is not NuttX.
- I consists of mostly 3rd party code and should not contaminate the
clean
modularity of the OS.
If we want to consider this kind of code change than I would insist on a
vote and I most certainly would vote -1. I don't care about care
about
hyphens or other cosmetics but I would not support any such corruption of
the modularity of the RTOS.
This must never happen.
