Martin: This issue has come up again in internal discussions because of the imminent release and it seems we have no consensus yet (neither about the use of namespaces nor about the naming of the namespace for non-pdf-extensions).
I suggest a compromise: For 1.30.0 all new primitives stay in the \pdf namespace (without renaming recently introduced primitives like \quitvomde), and we will implement real namespaces in 1.40.0 (Tacos proposal).
Nothing better comes to my mind. To clarify, you mean in pdfTeX 1.40.0 (containing Taco's jewel), \pdf* prefix will be simply removed from where its not suitable and future primitives will be prefixed with \pdf or none, right? BR, -- Pawe/l Jackowski P.Jackowski@gust.org.pl
