[TYPO3-dev] Official coding guidelines of TYPO3

[Rik Willems]

Hi,

Good to see these guidelines in place. Will use them starting now.

One question from my side. It is unclear to me what is meant.
On page 5 of the document this can be read:

piX/
These directories contain Frontend plugins. If extension is generated by 
the Kickstarter, X will be a number. It is recommended to give more 
meaningful names to Frontend plugin directories.
svX/
These directories contain TYPO3 services. If extension is generated by 
the Kickstarter, X will be a number. It is recommended to give more 
meaningful names to service directories.
modX/
These directories commonly contain Backend modules. If extension is 
generated by the Kickstarter, X will be substituted with a number. It is 
recommended to give more meaningful names to Backend module directories.

All extensions in TER leave the X=1 or X=2 in place. Is it actually 
meant that these directories should be rename to for instance piNewsArchive?

Regards,
Rik
