I won't disagree with this. ;-(
The only way to avoid collissions is to pick stupid names (zthis, zthat). I much prefer z.this to zthis. This assumes that we can make it easy to install z.this into z.
As long as z gets installed *at all* (before/after is not an issue), we can do this now. This is supported, if only by accident, by the current implementation of distutils.
I think that that's a different discussion. The safest thing to do for now is to continue using a container package.
I like this as well. -Fred -- Fred L. Drake, Jr. <fred at zope.com> PythonLabs at Zope Corporation
