hi Thomas,
yes, I/we do want namespaces in Pd!
For the time being a very simple solution (or, rather, a workaround) for linking class names to library they are in, would be to `hyphenate' them. By that I mean:
using hyphenated class names (xeq-follow, instead of xeq_follow);
changing sys_load_lib() routine so that if passed a classname with
a hyphen, it uses only prefix name in its attempt to load a library -- which is just a few very simple lines of code, and would not break anything of what we have now.
