[Jsynthlib-devel] Nomenclature

[Joe E. <jo...@em...>]

(Sorry to throw all of the messages to the list at once. I've been 
wondering about some of them for a while, and I just got around to 
posting them all to the list. This is the last one....)

Is there a standard nomenclature to use when we're discussing things on 
the list?

For example, even though the main piece of a synthdriver package is 
something which subclasses "Device", I think some people refer to it as 
a "Driver", which could cause people to confuse it with things which 
sub-class Driver.

So, to clarify, what do we call:
 - The thing we write which subclasses Device?
 - The things we write which subclass Driver and/or Editor?
 - The set of the previous two? ("synthdriver"?)
 - The actual hardware devices that JSL talks to? ("synths"? Even though 
it doesn't just talk to synths anymore?)
