I don't think anythink got decided, but then again arch requires very
little in the way of support: if the $project/ftp and $pubftp/project
are in sync (or preferably the same directory), then the arch users
are set up. ;)

I'm get more and more agnostic on the naming issues as time passes
by. ;)

The only thing I'd comment against would be gratuitious .lisp
postfixes and cl- prefixes, unless the project provides cl bindings to
a foreign linbrary -- in which case cl-foo makes perfect sense.

But I'm saying this "just for the record", not against cl-ubf as a name.

I think a good guideline is: "Would you dedicate a CLiki page by that
name to you project?".
