Style Guide

Overview

An open-source product visible to thousands of users, and possibly edited and maintained by dozens of users, has more need for a style guide and consistent nomenclature than a product used and developed by only one or two experts.

Release nomenclature

Release filenames shall be constructed as follows:

SeaBreeze-X.Y.Z.tar.bz2, e.g. SeaBreeze-3.0.0

This should unpack into a directory called "SeaBreeze-3.x.y", which should contain files like "README.TXT" and "Makefile".
