You can do this by doing
namespace fr
{
namespace pasteur
{
namespace dev
{
namespace bio
{
namespace model2cpv
{
....
}
}
}
}
}
The drawback with multiple levels is that name lookup may be longer.
It is the equivalent to using longer pathnames for files.
It would be faster t use
namespace fr_pasteur_dev_bio_model2cpv
