All,
As I create new operating system independent interfaces it would be best for
them to be placed in a C++ namespace. Currently I have, nested inside the
namespace "epics", a namespace "osi" standing for "operating system
independent". However, perhaps there is some dismay related to the name
"osi", as an acronym for "operating system independent", because it is of
course similar to other acronyms; for example there are of course "open
system interconnect" and "open source imitative" in common use. The name
"osd" is also commonly in use today in the EPICS distribution standing for
"operating system dependent".
Other options:
o epics :: osl - standing for "operating system liberated"
At this juncture, this issue remains quite easy to fix in the source code as
the new namespace is minimally populated.
Comments?
Since you have osi nested within epics there is no real conflict with
other uses of the name.
