I guess at some point we should start using namespaces for our transfer objects. This would be needed latest, when we do not just add an element but start to rename / restructure elements... Since Namespaces are usually a little harder to handle, I would be happy to avoid using namespaces, until is really becomes necessary ;-) > > Regards. > Jan
