I really think we need to keep a "org.xwiki.android.authenticator." prefix to be consistent with the Java package so -1 for 3) and 4). Since we need to choose one by +1 goes to "org.xwiki.android.authenticator.i2" to not feel too much like a version but still easy to understand and easy to increment if we have an issue (could be compromised key, not only lost one). > > I think that "*.(v2|reborn)" are not better ways to rename (but > "reborn" better than "v2" becase "v2" mean version number 2, but what for > do we have android app version?:) ) and in my humble opinion we must choose > "org.xwiki.android.sync.contacts" or better to choose > "org.xwiki.android.sync" because it will not prohibit us to add extension > applications with packages as "org.xwiki.android.sync.contacts" and will > show first value and purpose of application. > > Issue: https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/ANDAUTH-35 > --------- > Best regards, > Ovsyannikov Aleksey, > [email protected] -- Thomas Mortagne
