I understand a) and b), but I don't see why you need to change the
namespace as I assume this means people using the extension would then need
to heavily modify their code.

I believe this is for version 5.4, you can create a branch for that topic
and we'll merge it after 5.2 is out. As for the 5.2 version, I still need
to correct a problem I found in the GdaMetaStore update mechanism (I hope
to correct the bug and make it faster at the same time).

As I'm on holidays soon, I hope I get some more time to work on this.

I believe 5.2 won't be out for at least another month now, so I'd say you
have some time to correct this bug.

Thanks,
