What bother me is that the person who "tried to be clever" asked this
list what an appropriate name would be and got back 'atppc'. I think
pcppc was suggested but the overall response was that atppc was better
for whatever reason. You could have named it "right" if you had done
the work and had to make a trivial decision. If trying to be clever
involves asking what an appropriate name is, then I suppose the namer
is guilty as charged.

And this person who was trying to be clever's copyroght isn't even on
the files (in NetBSD's CVS) that he modified significantly from the
FreeBSD ppc(4) driver, so I don't think he cares much for your comments
or what NetBSD decide to name it.
