packages shouldn't get names that are general terms like "parser" or
"smtp". If this is actually the case, "ascii" is probably an
inappropriate name too.
Should the package requested in
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=523799
therefore be prefixed or renamed even if "ascii" is the upstream name?
Or is it OK as is, after all?

Well, Debian has this package under it's original name.


Sorry for bothering again. I'm still not sure whether renaming of package "ascii" is required or just recommended. Does Ralf's remark about Debian indicate that Fedora could ship the package under its original name too? I'm a bit confused. :)

Martin
