Zeev, I too have been searching the archives for subjects on 'namespace' and found allot of back and forth opinions on it but not a real summary about its conclusion. Basically, I have allot of code at work still in php4 that that uses it own class importing mechanism than just include|require[_once] dubbed 'Namespace' with static method Namespace::import(). I'm just wondering if 'namespace' and 'import' is reserved for future use before I port all my code to php5.
