I suggest the vote should call out if the change is breaking backward compatibility or not. I looked through the scala name changing thread and don't see justification for a backward incompatible change. I do agree it would be good to change the name space, but have not seen a reason why the change has to be made now in backward incompatible way. Non-binding vote: +1 for backward compatible namespace change -1 for backward incompatible namespace change
Suggest to explore package aliasing for a backward compatible change - see a possible idea at https://stackoverflow.com/questions/28238520/python-like-package-name-aliasing-in-scala Steffen On Mon, Mar 12, 2018 at 4:04 PM, Rahul Huilgol <rahulhuil...@gmail.com> wrote: > +1 > > We need to change the namespace as soon as possible. > > On Mon, Mar 12, 2018 at 3:15 PM, Roshani Nagmote < > roshaninagmo...@gmail.com> > wrote: > > > +1 to change the namespace > > > > On Mon, Mar 12, 2018 at 3:05 PM, Chris Olivier <cjolivie...@gmail.com> > > wrote: > > > > > The assumption is that it would be changed more-or-less immediately. > ie. > > > this is like a voted PR, I guess. > > > > > > On Mon, Mar 12, 2018 at 2:53 PM, Chris Olivier <cjolivie...@gmail.com> > > > wrote: > > > > > > > It is about changing the namespace.
