Rename packages starting by Moose

jecisc commented 3 months ago

From what I know of Moose, we have packages starting by "Moose" in Famix because they were a kind of project in between Fame and Famix tat could have been used by other MM than Famix.

But:

We never used them like this
They are in Famix since forever and never in their own project
They were never used like this
They are now really dependent on Famix
It would be a lot of work to make them independent

And it is confusing for new people to have packages with Moose and packages with Famix in the name.

With Clotilde we propose to way for the next release of Moose and rename all the packages to use Famix in the name instead of Moose.

Can you give examples of these packages ? (to understand more precisely what you are refering to)

jecisc commented 3 months ago

For example Moose-Core or Moose-Importers

NicolasAnquetil commented 3 months ago

Yes, these two really could go to Famix.

I discovered Moose-SmalltalkImporter also

There is also the issue of MooseEntity which is the root of all FamixEntity and not very useful I think... (some other issue)
