Re: Renaming namespaces to packages

Having watched this thread intently for the past few weeks, we seem to be simply tripping over the semantics of it all, right? Thinking a bit outside the box, how hard would it be to simply use both names, one as an alias of the other? In the end the documentation will probably need to outline how the PHP implementation differs from other popular languages. Just seems silly to let a semantics argument muddy the waters. --Tony ----- Original Message ---- From: Stanislav Malyshev <stas@zend.com> To: Marcus Boerger <helly@php.net> Cc: PHP Internals List <internals@lists.php.net> Sent: Monday, August 20, 2007 12:09:34 PM Subject: Re: [PHP-DEV] Renaming namespaces to packages > interesting, we are still in prototype form....hmmm since when do we > commit proto types?

Complex opensource project development? Frankly, I don't know how many people would even look at it if it was only in patch form - it's very big and complex patch. -- Stanislav Malyshev, Zend Software Architect stas@zend.com http://www.zend.com/ (408)253-8829 MSN: stas@zend.com -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
