[asdf-devel] defsystem behaviour

Hello all,

 

I have discovered defsystem names systems in a bit opposite way defpackage
does:

 

(defsystem :some-system .) and (defsystem "some-system" .) define the same
system, when (defsystem "SOME-SYSTEM" .) defines the other system.

 

In contradiction, (defpackage :some-package .) and (defpackage
"SOME-PACKAGE" .) define the same package, when (defpackage "some-package"
.) defines the other package.

 

Is this done intentionally?

 

It would be good to point this difference in the documentation.
