+ We won't need to make any changes to the actual application.
+ We can put all the changes to the original migration, then remove all the
+tables (migrate down the database), and then run the migration again to
+create the new tables. So the whole of the application wouldn't need any
+change at all.
+If you agree I can do that, don't worry about it.
+
+For the spackage renaming, it was there to distinguish it from the compiled
+packages and to be one word that sometimes make it easier.
+Since we do not need the compiled packages any more, we can simply call that
+packages.
+So maybe we can also change it to be only packages.
+Not a big change again, but we will need to change model,views, controllers.
