[Adium-devl] Community versus ego?

I'm in favor of this simply because I use Xcode's filter to find  
everything, so common prefixes == good. As for reducing egos... I  
think we all express our egos elsewhere ;)  
DCMessageContextDisplayPlugin or whatever it's called may be dchoby's  
originally, but at this point it's been through half the other people  
in the project, and really looks nothing like the original.

On a related note, once we all get Xcode 3, I would be in favor of  
renaming files for simplicity using the refactoring tools. For  
example, the above class would turn into AIMessageHistoryPlugin *at  
most*. Maybe just AIHistoryPlugin. AIWebKitMessageViewController  
would become AIWebKitMessageController or something similar  
(ViewController is a weird term anyway).
