The project group on Launchpad does not provide a 'namespace' for projects.

So there is already a zlib package at http://launchpad.net/zlib

Since we need our own development branch for this, we need to have our own project for it. And we can't just call it zlib (there is already one!).

So we need a prefix.

ubuntu packages are under an ubuntu/ namespace, so I'm assuming we can get a coapp namespace.

How does Ubuntu do all of their packages?

I don't think they need to all have the co- prefix because by being linked to the CoApp project we know the context of them.
Namespace conflicts?
