[BioSQL-l] namespace

[mark.schreiber at group.novartis.com]

java package name. By convention to prevent namespace collisions it's best 
to name a package with a namespace that you have some control over. I'm 
guessing that org.open-bio.obda might be the way to go.

biosql.org slipped (in fact was missed to register by us) a few years ago 
... very sad but true, now it's taken (squatted on).
 
Are you talking about a domain name or a java package name? Your 
suggestion resembles more the latter, hence my confusion.

                 Hello -
 
                 I'm doing some work on a package to manage a BioSQL db in 
Java called (for
                 want of a better name, charm). The default implementation 
that i'm writing
                 is backed by BioJava but the interfaces are generic 
enough that it doesn't
                 need to be. Anyhow, all of this needs a namespace. I see 
that
                 www.biosql.org doesn't have a website. Is this namespace 
reserved by
                 open-bio?? Would I be better to use 
org.open-bio.obda.charm.* for my
                 development?
