[TYPO3-core] Class namespaces with 6.0

[Oliver Hader]

Hey everybody,

... and thanks for your detailed explanation and feedback so far.
Currently we (Tom, Susi, Christian and me) are sitting in Fürth/DE to
finalize the namespace schemes for TYPO3 6.0.

However, one question still is basically unanswered - it's about our own
namespace for "the current TYPO3" - "\TYPO3" is used by FLOW3 and
Phoenix already, and if we once want to include FLOW3 packages to TYPO3
6.x/7.x, we will face conflicts (e.g. \TYPO3\Fluid which would be
available in both projects, however with different source code).

Thus, for TYPO3 6.0 we have currently two alternatives for "\TYPO3":
* \T3 (example \T3\Backend\..., \T3\Fluid, ...)
* \TYPO3CMS (example \TYPO3CMS\Backend\..., \T3\Fluid\...)

We are going to take the decision today be able to continue with the
whole task and be ready until the feature freeze in some days...

So, if you have objections, questions, ideas or suggestions - then
please speak up now. Thanks in advance for any feedback!

Cheers,
Olly
