+1 for braces around namespace definition. Personally I'm not really convinced that imposing a coding standard we see as clean/more acceptable is really useful in that case.

Namespace organization and file organization do not always match 1:1, especially if you're doing function-based programming rather than OO. Being able to put 2 namespaces in one file would add a great deal of flexibility, stat-count aside. -- Larry Garfield AIM: LOLG42 [EMAIL PROTECTED] ICQ: 6817012 "If nature has made any one thing less susceptible than all others of exclusive property, it is the action of the thinking power called an idea, which an individual may exclusively possess as long as he keeps it to himself; but the moment it is divulged, it forces itself into the possession of every one, and the receiver cannot dispossess himself of it." -- Thomas Jefferson -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
