🎁 [Feature Request]: Revert naming conventions.

Open ImmaZoni opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

What is the feature you would like to see?

Community members are confused by the new naming conventions of the CLI on the releases.

In the past we were utilizing naming conventions such as

  • subspace-cli-ubuntu-x86_64-v2-v0.4.0-alpha
  • subspace-cli-ubuntu-x86_64-v3-v0.4.0-alpha

Now we are doing doing naming conventions such as

  • subspace-cli-ubuntu-x86_64-skylake-v0.4.2-alpha
  • subspace-cli-ubuntu-x86_64-v2-v0.4.2-alpha

This has been causing some confusion as users think that only Skylake processors are compatible and don't know if they should continue to use this version is they are on different intel versions, or additionally if they are on AMD. Ultimately It looks like we should find some better naming conventions for the different cpu support versions. Some potential ideas below.

  • Name off of specific support required. such as subsapce-cli-ubunutu-x86_64-ADX-Support
  • Name a broader more simplistic version style (as was done prior, v2, v3, etc)

Welcome any suggestions from the community below on potential naming conventions.

Could we switch this to having no designation for current processors on -skylake in the monorepo and then -legacy for what is -v2 in the monorepo please? So something like this:

subspace-cli-ubuntu-x86_64-v0.6.0-alpha subspace-cli-ubuntu-x86_64-legacy-v0.6.0-alpha

This naming convention makes sense to me from a user perspective. LGTM!
