Hi everyone,
I'm doing a small hobby project to better my understanding of php5,
specifically php5.3 and I'm wondering when a namespaced project is
better and when it is better to simply use a prefix to all class names.
I've been trying to get a feeling for what is considered the best
practice, but most of the pages dealing with namespaces start with the
assumption that you are building a complex application with lots of
modules and say things like:
Namespaces should be all lowercase and must follow the following conention:
<vendor>\<package_name>\
(thats from the php.standards mailing list btw)
In my case the project is a single module, single php file, with about 6
classes. It is an OO wrapper for PHP's xmlrpc methods (client and
server) and meant to be used in a number of different projects.
Is it considered a good idea to use a namespace in such a case? And if
so, what should that be? I've named the project 'ripcord', and used that
as a namespace as well. I could probably name it 'muze.ripcord', but
somehow that feels less 'open' to me.
Thanks in advance for any thoughts,

PS. The project is at http://code.google.com/p/ripcord/, the PHP5.3
version is at
