The PHP guidelines seem rather clear that PHP modules all require a
"php-" prefix (with some types of modules requiring additional
designations like "php-pear-").  Recently I noticed that two modules,
phpFlickr and phpSmug, were both submitted and approved.  I held off
on doing CVS for the latter; the reviewer's reasoning is as follows:

"The php guidelines not withstanding, php-phpSmug struck me as
unnecessary duplication and the same with php-phpFlickr."

I can see the point, but I agree think we should leave the guidelines as is. php-phpFlickr *does* sound a bit clumsy, but at least it's consistent. Otherwise, if I saw phpXXX in a package listing, I would think it's an app like phpMyAdmin, rather than a library.
