Kenneth Knowles commented on BEAM-4046:
---------------------------------------

To be clear: you just delete settings.gradle. I am proposing we return to the 
defaults so projects are not renamed. But we do have a ton of docs to update, 
and it will be disruptive to people have have scripts using the targets. It 
would be nice if we could somehow have backwards compatibility for a while.

> Decouple gradle project names and maven artifact ids

> In our first draft, we had gradle projects like {{":beam-sdks-java-core"}}. 
> It is clumsy and requires a hacky settings.gradle that is not idiomatic.
> In our second draft, we changed them to names that work well with Gradle, 
> like {{":sdks:java:core"}}. This caused Maven artifact IDs to be wonky.
> In our third draft, we regressed to the first draft to get the Maven artifact 
> ids right.
> These should be able to be decoupled. It seems there are many StackOverflow 
> questions on the subject.
> Since it is unidiomatic and a poor user experience, if it does turn out to be 
> mandatory then it needs to be documented inline everywhere - the 
> settings.gradle should say why it is so bizarre, and each build.gradle should 
> indicate what its project id is.
