unify and rationalize utility namespaces

[alex]

As per today's discussion, dojo.xml.domUtil and dojo.xml.htmlUtil need to be moved up to dojo.dom and dojo.xml respectively. Aliasing should be accomplished in the manner described earlier. Other utility namespaces should be considered for consolidation and rationalization. For instance, dojo.alg and dojo.lang may be consolidated into dojo.util. Additionally, graphics and animation namespaces might be normalized.

Please comment in this bug to list all of the proposed changes.

Correction: dojo.xml.htmlUtil will become dojo.html (not dojo.xml).

[david]

Proposed changes:

• dojo.graphics -> dojo.animation
• dojo.dnd -> dojo.dragdrop (for clarity)
• dojo.alg + dojo.lang -> dojo.util

[david]

So how do we go about having dojo.html and dojo.dom? Do we have a folder for each one of them? I'm wondering if the package system in this case makes things a bit verbose. Then again, if this isn't meant for end users, it shouldn't be too big a deal.

please advise.

Sorry, trac is ass at dealing with actual people. We really need to move to usernames for everyone, even if that means one other than your SVN login.

[alex]

most of graphics.htmlEffects should move to dojo.effects.

[alex]

we've moved to dojo.dom, dojo.html, dojo.style, and dojo.fx. I think we can safely close this.
