why does the extension name need to be changed? I can only speak for 
myself, but if there where two extensions in TER doing the same, one 
called 'tx_party' and one called 'wec_people' - I'd definitely install 
'tx_party', because 'wec_people' is assuming that it's not a general 
extension due to the personalized extension key (like it is for 98% of 
the extensions in TER that are rubbish).

The only extension with a extension key like 'wec_whatever' that I've 
tested is 'wec_maps' - and that only because of 'tx_cal' (which is also 
WEC powered, but doesn't have a personalized ext key).

So I share Davids thoughts - you will get much more support if the 
extension key is not 'wec_whatever'. I think everybody would benefit if 
the name of the 'main' party extensions remains 'tx_party' and that 
'wec_people' is a addon, preconfiguring 'tx_party' for 
churches/ministrys, that are to specific for a general party extension.

That's at least for me the idea behind a ECT driven extension.
