Hi there,
I've been looking for a good 'standard' or 'to be standard' way of managing php modules and packages, thus landed up at this project which is more than perfect!

One thing however I do feel should be changed:

"Mandatory:

* A fully-qualified namespace and class must have the following structure ()*
* Each namespace must have a top-level namespace ("Vendor Name")."

To me the above two should not be mandatory as not always there is Vendor who provides the class or module in question. Also by removing that, one would give enough freedom of choice on how modules are been located.

What do you think?

* Take a look at this http://search.npmjs.org/
* and this one http://www.commonjs.org/specs/modules/1.0/
