[tex-live] Offtopic: Metafont, Metapost spelling

Hi there,
I'd like to know about proper (case wise) spelling of Metafont resp
Metapost.

In CTAN catalogue files we have it all:  METAFONT, MetaFont and
Metafont. Likewise for Metapost. IIRC, in PDF documents it is usually
a METAFONT resp. METAPOST logo.

It is not about visibility on ctan.org as the CTAN portal transforms for
instance Metafont to the proper logo. But  for the joy of consistency I 
like to straighten this out in our files.

Question: In our text based files which spelling should we choose? 

Thanks all.
