[bt-devel] namespace problems

[Jason Gress]

David,

	Not all of us consider namespaces basic (or at least if you were taught C++ 
on an old UNIX compiler at school that didn't support them ;) ).  Can you 
point me to a good tutorial on the internet that can clarify what exactly 
they are used for and how to use them effectively?  Thanks!

	Jason
