I like it. Its a much cleaner organization than the 2.4 libs. I would 
like to see it used as a starting point for a reorg of the standard lib 
namespace.

One question that is raised is whether the categories should map 
directly to package names in all cases. For example, I can envision a 
desire that 'sys' would stay a top-level name, rather than 'rt.sys'. 
Certain modules are so fundamental that they deserve IMHO to live in the 
root namespace.
