So I ran a small scale experiment[1] and what happens is that current pull requests continue to be made against the original directory name, not the new one, and so merging the PR creates a new directory with the previous name.

I suggest we still go ahead with this and either:

1) get folks to update their PRs, or
2) merge them as is and just mv the files to the new directory after the merge.

Thoughts?
