That's true. I was thinking about the 'motivational' aspect of the
discussion when I wrote that, not the package issue. This is a good
point, and is a nice trick, the parallel package trees.
However,
/src/java/org...
/src/test/org...
is a bit odd, not symmetric, in that the test tree is also java. (I like
symmetry...)
I don't have a solution - I am a lousy namer. I will try anyway...
/src/java/src/org..
/src/java/test/org..
/src/java/???/org...
/src/java/test/org...
( I suppose I am going to hear "... we chose 'share' for ???..." :)
