So I'm think we're going with all caps for ALTR. We've already been
using altr, so the 2nd option is colliding with the 1st option.

This would leave ALTR as the oddball out of all the prefixes currently
in existence (of which several are *lower case* stock ticker symbols).
Grant, do you have any view here? I'm happy to allow uppercase if you're
happy with it.

Why is using the string you're using already (atlr) a problem?

Its not a problem. It was a suggestion from the V1 patch and then
silence. I took the silence as *caps* was the way to go.

Aah, sorry for the confusion there. I guess we're all a bit stretched at
the moment. I'm happy with altr (lower case) as a vendor prefix, and
I'll reply to the original patch to clarify the matter.
