hi all let me drop my two cents here: i would like to emphasize IOhannes' point here, since i have been a few times in a situation with a group of people using different platforms, where a naming convention respecting platform and architecture would have been helpful. i mean, there is a real practical use in finding such a convention, whereas there seem to be only theoretical reasons for keeping the existing suffixes. roman ___________________________________________________________ Telefonate ohne weitere Kosten vom PC zum PC: http://messenger.yahoo.de _______________________________________________ Pd-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management -> http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
