in any case it makes sense to cook up a decent system for namespacing so that all those mpt, metaobj and metafun can work together

currently i use a prefix for variables and a postfix for macros, i.e mpt_VariableName or Macro_mpt for the mptricks package. The problem is that it is useful for internal macros and variables but not for the user interface.

Additionally, this problem is not only important in the ConTeXt arena, so what do you think about opening a MetaPost or TeX-and-Graphics mailinglist. There things like the current thread could be discussed. Has anybody good conections, for example to NTG, to organize this.

getting an ntg list is no problem, as long as we keep that list low bandwidth, keep the context related questions on the context list, since -) something ntg-metapost for mp specific things sounds ok to me Hans ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE | pragma@wxs.nl Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: +31 (0)38 477 53 69 | fax: +31 (0)38 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------- information: http://www.pragma-ade.com/roadmap.pdf documentation: http://www.pragma-ade.com/showcase.pdf -------------------------------------------------------------------------
