Well, speaking about packages, this is one of the very few things I would like to see in ObjC. But speaking about Java packages, they are useless IMHO, because of the lack of support for versions. I remember when the Java was still in stage of white papers and pre-alpha releases, I asked Mr. James Gosling why the packages does not support versions. He told me that if you carefully design your interface you will never change it (only extend it), and therefor you do not need packages (at that time they had no depreciation switch for javac ;-) I told him he is naive. He never replayed. I still think he is naive...
