This change is resonable for me _if_ it will be thoroughly carried out. That 
means in addition to the renaming of the directories its also necessary to

- update the existing module documentation (README files, devel index.html)
- fix the build process and the packaging
- update openser install documentation (INSTALL, wiki pages)
- add a note to the porting guide for 1.3

Cheers,
