Yes I did, which is why I find it strange that making this particular
change to the ISO name format is considered to have come from that
thread.  I don't recall seeing that exact change discussed, but I coudl
be wrong, it was a long thread and I probably didn't read the whole
thing in detail.

I still don't see anything in that post about changing the iso name as
mentioned above.  Do feel free to point out specifics to me.

My point is that there was a claim by the board that this particular
change was discussed extensively on the -devel list.  If it was then it
should be quite easy to point out the post(s) in the archives where this
particular discussion tool place.
