[Python-Dev] PEP 382: Namespace Packages (original) (raw)

Right: if all portions install into the same directory, you can have base packages already. Speaking as a user of packages, this use case is one I hardly ever encounter with the Python software/modules/packages I use. The only ones that spring to mind are the mx.* and ll.* packages. The rest simply create their own namespace as .*, but there's nothing that uses that same namespace and installs separately from the base package that I know of.

There are a few others, though: zope., repoze., redturtle., iw., plone., pycopia., p4a., plonehrm., plonetheme., pbp., lovely., xm., paste., Products., buildout., five., silva., tl., tw., themerubber., themetweaker., zc., z3c., zgeo., z3ext.*, etc.

Regards, Martin
