No, but you can attach various lenses to one, & many people will see
that as being 'interchangable', & IMO, it's just a another example of
how the fuzziness of the scope in the charter will cause confusion &
friction.
Nobody involved in writing the RFD has yet explained why they think it
would be a bad thing to just make the scope of the proposed group
*exactly* equivalent to the name of the group, thereby eliminating these
sorts of problems.
