frankly - we talk about PHP and not some theoretical language many people use it *because* things like base64_decode(), base64_encode(), sha1(), crc32(), crypt(), bin2hex() - what have all these samles to do with PHP except that's the language we are using? no - I and many othes don't want to throw tons of 3rd party code and/or external extension in the mix of their applicationshttps://wiki.php.net/rfc/uuid#namespace This is more a general thing. I know from many online conversations, meetups, and conferences that people would love to see it.My $0.02 is basically what Nikita Popov has said at some point in the past: The PHP namespace should be reserved for things that are language oriented, not stuff shipped by default by PHP. For instance a PHP AST library would appropriately live in the PHP namespace. A UUID library which has nothing to do with PHP except that's the language we are using would not be appropriate there
