The project's full id is the id of the parent project with
the short name appended (e.g. tools.buildship). The full id is
used in the "project info" page (e.g.
http://projects.eclipse.org/projects/tools.buildship)
and when interacting with the Eclipse IP Team.
We also also use the short name as a repository prefix. So,
we'll have paths like:
...
As with project names, my understanding is that we have to
be sensitive to trademarks in URLs. In places where the short
name will not otherwise be qualified, we'll prepend "ee4j-" to
the short name.
e.g. Eclipse Project for JMS will have the short
name "jms" and id "ee4j.jms". The custom website URL will be:
I'm concerned that this makes the URL way less obvious
(i.e. hard to guess) than I'd like. Most people, however, will
probably be looking for the Git repo, and--of course--search
will work.
But we'll keep the other URLs as sane as we can.
e.g.
Does this make sense?
