Then that's more proof we shouldn't be using this naming convention. :-)

Actually I'm only half-joking. C#/.Net's naming conventions are 
perversely backwards from Java's. For example, all the classes have 
an initial lower case letter and all the fields and methods have an 
initial upper case letter. Honestly, nothing annoys me more about C# 
than that.

Gary Cornell told me that C# is actually copying Delphi conventions, 
and that Java is perversely backwards from the earlier Delphi. Be 
that as it may, I don't think Microsoft .Net conventions should be 
any way suggestive for Java.
