The patch to move nsh from VPP to nsh_sfc is published.
I'd ask though that we don't merge it in lieu of a request.
I'd like to rename the repo: nshsfc from nsh_sfc
Can I get a vote from committers +1/-1/0 and if it passes I'll make a formal request to TSC and then helpdesk to have it changed.
Would much rather do this now whilst it is empty than down the road.
Granted, it's a nit, but a rather annoying one after spending a day or so typing it.

Woot! on the patch :)
I look forward to the outcome of the vote among the committers :)

-1.
I think nsh_sfc is clearer because both nsh and sfc are already abbreviation, combination of them to make nshsfc is hard to understand for new comers.

Would simply calling it nsh clear it up? It's only support for nsh header and its manipulation functions, how the control plane chooses to exercise those functions is really the SFC part.

Also not a committer but Keith’s proposal does make sense to me.

While I am not a committer for this project, we had the discussion of whether to include the sfc term in the name during the project creation discussions. The project scope is NSH in the context of SFC. It is not any old use of NSH in any context. Scoping does matter.
We had oroginally mde the mistake of using upper case in the repo name. I was (politely) told that the name of the repo needed to be a normal C variable (and yes, I do know that while syntactically legal, C coding conventions generally don't use upper case for variables.) So we made it lower case.
Keith is there an actual problem with the underbar other than your dislike of typing it?
Yours, Joel

Joel,
You are absolutely correct on all counts. As I said, in the original email, it was a nit, pure and simple. I just hate typing it.
It's just easier to address now before we open up for patches as iirc we can't "rename" but it's a net new repo and we would lose all commit history.
I certainly don't have exclusivity on "the naming of things" and in fact there's no debate here at all. It would have had to have been unanimous agreement/ambivalence before moving it forward. Danny's objection is enough for me to withdraw the idea.
Now, to fix the patch itself. It's my wedding anniversary today so honey-dos top the list today, followed by VPP reviews, etc.
Appreciate the feedback, it's all good. Consider the idea withdrawn. Viva la nsh_sfc !!!!
