You can define constants only in run-time using define(). This is the reason
why this proposal don't try to use constants and variables in namespaces. So
ithis approach is absolutely consistent.
BTW you can "import" not only namespace but also class from namespace.
<?php
namespace A::B;
class Foo {
const C = 5;
}
<?php
import A::B::Foo;
echo Foo::C;
I would like to start with this "simple" proposal and may be extend it with
constants and variables in the future.
Thanks. Dmitry.

One thing I'm wondering (might have missed it on the list but we
discussed that a little bit on irc..)
Do we have to have a namespace per file or could we have our braces ? :)
namespace A::B
{
class BooYa
{
const C = 'Foo';
}
}
--- Then..
import A::B::BooYa;
echo BooYa::C;
That way we can put more than one namespace within a file or such...
just point me if I am replying to an existing question or re-asking :)
Thanks,
