I hope you mean, "here at your company or organization", as I disagree. :)
The current draft API guidelines for Chandler encourage the use of short
API module names such as 'pim' and 'mail' to allow more clarity as to
naming, while encouraging import patterns that make module reloading more
practical during development. Using a module name as a prefix to a class
or function name also allows flatter namespaces with fewer imports,
especially in the case of APIs which contain many features and are
frequently used.
Of course, we don't do abbreviations or renaming; instead, code like this
is the common pattern:
from application import schema
class Contact(schema.Item):
name = schema.One(schema.Text)
# ... etc.
