Hi Nicolas,

Glad you asked!  In brief: the 'TL' naming was a pain for folks using 3rd 
party modules, and a pain for me because it meant I needed to modify GFS 
to build it.  After more than a year of maintaining Tao Linux, I've gotten 
a better/different sense of what's important in a rebuild.  I actually 
still do the Tao mods - including all the 'unsupported' modules in the 
main package, but I'm going to stop changing the naming to make life 
easier for a few folks.

So, it was intentional.

regards,
 	David
