Comment(by phobos):

 Replying to [comment:5 kaner]:
 > I think the naming scheme should (except for the source) just let the
 user pick an architecture he's on, and that's it. We should decide what
 package is best for him/her for a given architecture. Following this, I
 suggest:
 >
 > windows
 > macosx-i386
 > macosx-ppc
 > linux-i386
 > linux-x86_64
 > source

 except there is no macosx-ppc package that's valid any more.  Otherwise, I
 say try it.  Our benchmark will be the # of emails to tor-assistants
 before and after the change.
