Hi flashrom folks,
working again on implementing the libflashrom interface described here
[1]. During review [2] the question arose what `fl_` means and if we
don't want to use something else. The following alternatives were pro-
posed in the wiki:
* fl_ / FL_ (probably *fl*ashrom)
* lf_ / LF_ (*l*ib *f*lashrom)
* lfr_ / LFR_ (*l*ib *f*lash *r*om)
* rom_ / ROM_
IIRC, on IRC the following was proposed:
* fr_ / FR_ (*f*lash *r*om)
I don't think it has to be an acronym, so I'd add:
* flash_ / FLASH_
* flashrom_ / FLASHROM_
My personal preference would be either `fr_` or `flash_`.
I think this will be open for discussion only for few days. Moving
forward is currently more important than finding the perfect name.
Best regards,
Nico
