In vocabprocess--tjl, renaming xu links and
PP links to CLink and dLink, respectively,
received opposition. This PEG is for discussing
the nomenclature of the vocabularies.
Say here why a rename is needed.

In vocabularies (and possibly elsewhere), the connections
that are now called xu links and PP links should
be renamed to c-links and d-links for {content/constant} link
and {directed/dynamic} link.
Say here why these names.
My opinion is that 'clink' and 'dlink' are nondescriptive. I think
'content link' is probably a good name; it should then be named
'contentLink,' not 'cLink.' An alternative is 'alphLink'; since this
is closely coupled to Alph, 'alphLink' is actually probably better.
contentLink: too long, but I might accept that.
