For me with this renaming is important that at least from the description it should then be absolutely clear what goes into a component and what not (for a developer).

What's happened to the proposal to remove the wine- prefix from bugzilla components and have the components represent the dlls they belong to?
I didn't want to remove the wine- prefix without also getting most of the other wanted changes done in the same go. But those require that someone gets a list of the exact changes posted and agreed upon on. I didn't have time for that yet... but if none of the other admins get it done I can probably find the time to make the changes in such a list.
I think such a list would need: old name (empty for new components); new name; description (should list other names that are associated with the component or things contained in the component, list of source files that this component contains with bash style globs).
We can also change the default assignee (currently wine-bugs@winehq.org for all components) and/or default cc list (AFAIK currently empty for all components).
Possibly bad example: wine-directx-dshow; directx-dshow; DirectShow ( dlls/{quartz,msdmo,qcap}/ ); dshow-hacker@test.test; dshowhacker2@test.test, dhowhacker3@test.text;
If we want to move all the bugs from one component to other components we can delete the component after it doesn't contain any bugs anymore:
wine-foo; deprecated-foo; Bugs in this component should be moved to bar or misc.
This would be really nice, however not sure how much work will it take. Don't think bugzilla supports renaming of the components. Might need some custom converter.
Bugzilla supports renaming components.
