[Python-Dev] Empty directory is a namespace? (original) (raw)

Hello,

I've just noticed the following:

$ mkdir foo $ ./python Python 3.3.0a4+ (default:837d51ba1aa2+1794308c1ea7+, Jun 23 2012, 14:43:41) [GCC 4.5.2] on linux Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

import foo foo <module 'foo' (namespace)>

Should even an empty directory be a valid namespace package?

Regards

Antoine.
