April 2025 monthly summary: Focused effort on standardizing eCAL C sample naming to improve clarity, consistency, and maintainability across the sample suite. Implemented the eCAL sample naming convention refactor by renaming sender/receiver identifiers from hello_snd to hello_send and from hello_rec to hello_receive, and updated the C++ sample initialization strings to reflect the new naming. This reduces onboarding time for new contributors and lowers the risk of misconfigurations in sample usage. Related commit: 82ffb1aa6578e3ae72eef0d0bda58220109796bd ("[sample] Reworked sender/receiver for c samples (#2096)").
