Example: it.bese.arnesi. I'm a little iffy about dots in group names etc. Would it be ok to just replace the dots with underscores?
Frankly, I don't know. What is it you dislike about dots?

Linux (and Unix in general, I suspect) does not like it. I think we can force it but I'm suspecting it will blow up somewhere.
Actually, I can't even seem to force my Debian here, even with --force-badname.

Ah - no. Then I think we shouldn't allow them. Maybe the best thing is to ask for a name change, pointing out that issue.

OK, good point. Perhaps we should mention this on the project-info.html page.
