In that particular case, I wouldn't, except possibly as an implementation detail with the main OpenGL package importing the contents of all its sub-packages into itself (and I think that if you look at the PyOpenGL source you'll find that it's doing something similar). It's following a well-documented API that is separate from its Python wrapper. It's unfortunate that the only namespacing considered in the design of that API was "everything starts with the prefix gl", but that's what we're stuck with. Moving things around would just confuse users who can't then find them where they expect. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
