JDLReq repository name

Hello Richard,

We came up with JLreq-D (jlreq-d) as an alternative idea. What do you think? It has an hyphen but "simple-ruby" also has it…

The digital native version on the contrary is a part of internationalized text system. It is the Japanese language support in the internationased line layout system. So, I am fine with making the repository name alined with others, I still prefer as the title of the document placing the language name after. What do you think?
