[0]jeevesbond writes “PHP finally is finally getting support for
namespaces. However, after [1]a couple hours of conversation, the
developers [2]picked ‘\’ as the separator, instead of the more popular
‘::’. [3]Fredrik Holmström points out some problems with this approach.
The [4]criteria for selection were ease of typing and parsing, how hard
it was to make a typo, IDE compatibility, and the number of characters.”
