It means that we change whatever extensions aren't studlyCaps to studlyCaps (except for MySQLi, i.e. this is why it's a bad decision) and make sure in future we stick to CODING_STANDARDS. I already said that personally I'd prefer for MySQLi to change too. Andi

Maybe the extensions that do not comply with the CODING_STANDARDS should find alternative ways of distribution. For example MySQL AB can distribute mysqli from mysql.com and then use any standard they please. Edin
