Should packages which wrap each other be in child packages of RDF.Raptor.Iostream? I think no, because they do not require access to internals (private part) of RDF.Raptor.Iostream but child packages have access to private parts. So, should they be siblings, like RDF.Raptor.Iostream_To_Ada and RDF.Raptor.Iostream_From_Ada? (Also please help to conceive good names for these packages.) -- Victor Porton - http://portonvictor.org
