I dont have a problem with prefixing the classnames but at this moment I
cannot work on this. If you prefix all the classes I really do suggest
that you change phpbaseclasses name too.. phpbaseclasses is being used
in production and I do want to keep it backwards compatible.

I warn you, if you want to prefix the storage-tier classes to; it is
possible that you will have a lot work.. Suggestion :

Search and Replace "=3D new " to "=3D new w"


Once all is merged into the new project I will focus new work on the new
project in stead of phpbaseclasses. I think such a project is better
then small separated modules ...  but again, at this moment .. I am
very, very busy ! sorry

However.. of the record; I don't like prefixes like that :). It would be
better to use namespaces for this. I don't know if PHP5 will make this
possible... and/or if it is possible in PHP4.

You can put phpbaseclasses in any directory. The best thing you can do
is to put it outside your DirectoryRoot for security reasons. You can
also put the config.xml file anywhere you want (just set the global
variable `$configfile` to point to that file).
