It looks like there's been a bit of recent discussion regarding module and package namespaces.
This idea has been raised before, but it was a while back, and we called it "grafting".
I concur with Simon that the mounting proposal has similarities to the grafting proposal. I also concur that opinions may have changed since the previous discussion, so it is worthwhile bringing it up again. I also wonder whether (or to what extent) mounting/grafting could address (or conflict with) the question of qualified name exports expressed in this thread: http://www.haskell.org//pipermail/libraries/2004-December/002800.html http://www.haskell.org//pipermail/libraries/2005-March/003390.html Regards, Malcolm
