I think more people need to speak up on this question --- particularly authors of existing packages, since the current proposal necessitates an update to each existing package.
The proposal is to make single-package collections the default: * If a directory used as a package has no "info.rkt" file, then it is treated as a single-collection package. The single collection's name is the same as the package name (which tends to be the directory name, but it depends on how you install the package). * If a directory used as a package has an "info.rkt" file, but "info.rkt" doesn't explicitly say that the package is multi-collection, then it's still a single-collection package. The "info.rkt" file might supply a name for the single collection, instead of leaving it to the package name; supplying a name would be a requirement for ring-0 packages. For each existing package, the author would need to add a line to the package's "info.rkt" to indicate that it is a multi-collection package (or change the layout to single-collection mode, with the caveat that the package won't work with v5.3.4). Any more votes for/against? _________________________ Racket Developers list: http://lists.racket-lang.org/dev
