gspark, I also am an end-user as well as a designer. Your complaint is so trivial I’m amazed you received any replies at all. With a Ph.D. in computer science and some 25 years of development experience, I am unable to comprehend why the presence or lack of a wp- prefix makes a hill of beans. As was mentioned earlier in the thread it is the functioning and functionality of the software that makes it “real” or not. I strongly suspect that it matters not a hoot to most people whether a file is called, for example, “wp-post.php” or “post.php”. if www.remarpro.com wants to identify the files as being part of the WordPress package and also to take pride of ownership by using the prefix, so what and more power to them. Having produced the package as open source, free software and without monetary compensation, they deserve at least a little self-indulgence and our thanks.
