I'm all for standardization, but I do like the shorter names for the common case where you only need the unstable version. Certainly if there are vendor or series differences, the namespaces make a lot of sense. But most of my packages don't need it. Would you be open to allowing such simplification in the common case in DEP-14? Cheers, -Barry
