For new packages I would use whatever upstream uses in regard to '-' vs
'.'. For existing ones, how many are there? It might be best to just
leave them as-is rather than go through the dance of deprecating the old
packages.

I've actually last week started working on that. I've only done the
python part, haven't searched for any javascript or font-awesome which
I'm pretty sure I saw. I've also started working on a service for it
which I haven't committed yet, but it looks like it's going to be
complex.

'guix package -A python-zope' lists them all as having a dash, I'd just
go ahead and make them all dashes.
