The simplest change would be to just drop the extra segment... org.eclipse.e4.core* becomes org.eclipse.core.*, etc. In some cases this would cause collision with 3.x packages so they would have to take on different names. The other approach would be to maintain a strong separate between 3.x and 4.x package names, by calling all 4.x packages something like org.eclipse.platform.*. I kind of like this idea of maintaining a hint in the package name to delineate "old" from "new" ways of doing things, but I'm curious to hear what others think. +1 to keeping strong separation. It would be confusing otherwise for pure 4.x apps. It took several months before I realized that org.eclipse.ui.* was effectively off-limits. Brian. -- Rescue your task list with Kizby!
