No shit.  They should at least get together and come up with some common
naming convention.  They need to make some common "naming authority", it's
not difficult, we do it all the time with other software and as mentioned,
in all scientific disciplines.  Otherwise, things become very convoluted
for us in the know.  This is irrelevent to the general population,
but is necessary for the people who have to deal with these things.

How about it "AV guys"?  (I mean to be nice here...)
