As Tim pointed out recently, some top level namespaces such as Apache:: or XML:: are so generic that three-level names make sense. Thus, people wishing to develop addition TEI tools would use XML::TEILite as their root namespace. The same discussion occurred with the same conclusion when the perl-xml list was debating whether to use XML::SAX::* or have a SAX:: top level namespace. -- Robin Berjon <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- for hire: http://robin.berjon.com/ "I will not teach Plato.
