There's no reason to have another level of inderection for project name, it just makes the spec file more obscure.
Thr use of a variable really doesn't bother me much, was there a reason that it was put in to the Makefile in the first place?

It was part of a big Makefile re-do [1]. I decided to revert this particular change, because translating "$(NAME).conf" to "autoqa.conf" all the time when reading the Makefile is annoying and I see no benefit in that. Of course this is not the crucial commit in my patchset - it doesn't have to be accepted and everything will still work.
