> So maybe if Squeak renamed "Collections" similarly to what Pharo did,
I don't mind if you commit the package under a new name. I wasn't
aware that Squeak has a different package structure for collections.
> MC allows a dash in a package name and treats it as one unique name?
The important thing is that the name of a package is not a prefix of
another package (like the package 'Collection' is a prefix of
'Collection-BTree'). The actual code that tests for this is:
PackageInfo>>category: categoryName matches: prefix
^ categoryName notNil and: [categoryName = prefix or:
[categoryName beginsWith: prefix, '-']]
In Pharo people seem to avoid the use of dashes in package names.
In Seaside we extensively use dashes as a tag to differentiate
tests/examples and platform dependent code while keeping the package
name the "same": http://code.google.com/p/seaside/wiki/PackageNaming
