No. Sorry, wrong example. However it would cause problems if there was a component called 'index'. Likewise if the common site wanted to use a subdirectory with the same name as a component. Both 'resources' and 'email' are potentially useful as common subdirs. There are lots of potential clashes if the name spaces are merged, so why run the risk? > Emmanuel Bourg > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] > For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected] > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
