I've gone ahead and added them anyway, since we still have opac-shelves.pl and C4:VirtualShelves hanging around. 2015-06-22 8:28 GMT-06:00 Kyle Hall <kyle.m.hall@gmail.com>:
Excellent list Jonathan! I think You've summed up most if not all the terms that need clarifying. The only one I could possibly add is Lists, but I don't think anyone has called them virtual shelves in ages.

IMO what we need, most of all, is a consensus on how we want to see the Koha namespace organised.

It's been discussed a few times, but I think we need to formalize naming conventions when writing patches for Koha.
The worse offenders are those things that we use many different names for both internally and externally. I think patrons/borrowers/members is the worst offender. List come to mind as well ( previously being virtual shelves ).
I believe that our internal nomenclature should reflect our outward nomenclature. So if the staff and/or OPAC use the term "patron" we should be using the term "patron" in our code as well, especially for namespaces.
What does everyone think?
The more we hammer out now the easier it will be to vote on naming rules at the dev meeting.
