If namespaces have to be renamed, then IMHO this proposal is the best so far.
"alias" would also remove confusion from statement like ``import Foo``
because ``alias Foo`` is clearly no-op per se. At least to me ;-)

Why not use both names?
For all of those distributing frameworks and such, use "package". And
for everybody else, who just wants to shorten their class names, use
"namespace".
It's probably easier said than done, but why not just alias one to the
other?

A package means a collection of related classes and thats not whats

Marc,
This is not the right reason for naming it namespace.
Example:
Say I am writing a new language. I want to introduce something similar
to functions. But since OO is popular and sounds nice.. why not call
it method on an object?
People are asking for objects.. I'll just give them objects.
FWIW I am for "namespaces" because:
- the functionality mentioned most often as missing in PHP is
'namespaces'. People want 'namespaces' (see
