No, I'm talking about people who have developed something and can't, 
won't, or just haven't signed a contributer agreement, but want to make 
the code open source and available.  Instead of each and every one 
coming up with their own name space there could be a default, 
non-foundation name space for them to use.  Jim (Washington)'s code is 
just such an example.  In this specific case I'd prefer he put it in 
svn.zope.org, and if so should be in the "zf" name space.  If, for some 
reason, he doesn't then the name space could be "z" (or some other nice 
name).

Totally agreed.
