Subject: namespaces and alpha3
From: mls@pooteeweet.org (Lukas Kahwe Smith)

Hi All,

There was an offline exchange, which generated a lot of good ideas,  
but that failed to find agreement for one final proposal among the  
participants. I had hoped that the results would have been mailed to  
this list yesterday. Since I am going on yet another frisbee trip in  
about an hour, I am putting on the thumb screws with this post. Stas  
might update his proposal and Dmitry has a proposal that makes some  
more modifications to be able to handle functions/constants in  
namespaces without ambiguities. I will leave it to them to send their  
proposals to the list.

At this point I guess we have the choice between:

1) rip them out
2) status quo
3) Stas proposal
4) Dmitrys proposal

Again I hope that Stas/Dmitry will give us an insight about their  
proposals, though Stas proposal might or might not see any changes.

In my dream world you all would come to an agreement, finish up the  
patches by Monday so that we could release alpha3 next Thursday. Since  
that is not going to happen we will see alpha3 on the 21st I guess.

regards,
Lukas Kahwe Smith
