Joshua Eichorn (http://pear.php.net/user/jeichorn) has commented on the proposal for RFC::Prefix all packages with P_. Comment: One way of looking at this is changing the name of every package means breaking ever current PEAR app, not just those that get unluckly with hitting a reserved word. Now to get a small new feature or a bug fix you have to update all your code. Prefixing new v2 php5 versions of stuff might make sense but renaming classes and doing a release doesn't unless we've actually run into a problem.
