Completely agree with you in principle regarding general Javascript, but with regards Class.create and inheritance functionality Prototype is surely trying to imitate traditional OO and therefore having some of the common helper functions may be useful. By the way, your getClassName code is great, perfect for my needs. Combining that into the namespace stuff will be great for my project. On a related note, anyone have any ideas how I could get rid of the eval in the code I submitted? as the removal of an eval overhead should allow for the combining of the include functionlity into the package function, removing the need of a seperate include method.
