hey hans,

if it's called "extended" and you strip it down to the bare bones, then where's the extended part? Do I understand you correctly that you want to restructure the whole library mess? maybe you should just go for one big lib called extended then, that includes everything that is not really related to special libraries like gem or pdp. I would support a public decision making process that votes nameclashing objects in or out to extended. but the most important thing is to document what's inside. then people can reference to that set of object classes and deal with exceptions.

eventually, I think users should not have to bother with namespaces at all. I still consider namespace declarations in a visual dataflow programming tool to be a hack.

btw, does the number of loaded libraries/object classes influence the startup time of patches?

marius.
