4.0. "Suggestion for Naming Templates" by INTER::F_BUTLER () Fri Sep 01 1989 15:05

    I suggest that the prefix footer be removed from the
    name of all templates.  For example, footerfrontmatter
    should simply be called frontmatter.  There is only
    one frontmatter template so why add footer to its name.

4.1	footer templates	LEAF::COLELLO	Bette Jean 226-7223	`Wed Sep 06 1989 10:09`	15
	So, your suggestions include: Currently ------> Future footerfrontmatter frontmatter footerchapter chapter footerappendix appendix footerbackmatter backmatter The purpose of these templates is to set up the folios (running feet) for the user. We placed footer in the name of the template to clarify that, but it sounds like it was more confusing. Any votes or other suggestions? Bette Jean

	I agree with Lee..I think the new terms are clearer. More specific terms makes it easier to learn.
4.3	Keep the current names	LEAF::L_SWEENEY	Larry Sweeney DELNI::L_SWEENEY (226)5342 LKG2-2/T2	`Thu Sep 07 1989 11:09`	10
	I disagree with Lee. My understanding of the templates is that they specify only the footers for those individual types of documents. The current names connote that you need something else to have a complete book element, like a catalog. Of course, my understanding is often not that great. Larry
4.4	Voters?	LEAF::COLELLO	Bette Jean 226-7223	`Fri Sep 15 1989 10:26`	5
	any other votes??? We currently have 2 to change the names and 1 to keep them the same... Bette Jean
