I vote for using the name "Package" for the current implementation. This leaves the "Namespace" name available for future development if/as needed (such as if the language were to show itself to need more than one namespace per file (or whatever the future may hold)). It can still be touted that PHP has "namespace support" regardless of whether it's called "package" or not (something many developers, myself included, will be very happy to see). To me the term package, in this context, refers to a more specific implementation of the namespace concept. Much as automobile refers to a general concept while luxury, sports and economy refer to more specific implementations of the idea. Regardless of what's chosen, a huge thanks to all the developers of PHP who make these things happen. Thank you all! -- Mark
