That's because the engineer who started that particular framework,  
Richard Williamson, chose that style. And it's not so easy to change  
such things with cvs. I suspect that if we go over to Subversion we  
will rename those directories, since it will then be easy to do so  
without damaging project history.

I'd like to find a nice place on our website or Wiki to keep track of  
"renaming ideas". I often have files and classes I'd like to rename,  
and I want to float those names with the community for a while before  
doing the name changes.
