The Open Printing Vector API uses 'opvp' as prefix throughout.
It's sloppy and amateur coding practice not to use a library
specific unique prefix (e.g., 'opjt') for variables and functions.

The scope is NOT just OP libraries, but the entire universe of
code that might be linked into a vendor or third-party tool.

Till can hopefully answer this one - we're not any of us happy
about the move from a full-function Wiki tool to a limited Wiki
tool by the Linux Foundation.
