Why change them? Just start using something else instead. Leave namespaces where they are now. If they work for some, then there is no reason to get rid of it for those people. If they don't work for others, then maybe something along the lines of what I was proposing might be a more suitable solution. There is always room for change... --- Seairth Jacobs seairth@s...
