Re: What top-level names are “allocated”?

[Adam Bergmark]

The only thing it means afaik is that this warning triggers. Several
projects ignore this and use a top level name instead. My vote would be to
remove this warning.

Forgive me, but what does "allocated top-level name" mean?

I think, “Reactive” would be much better. Most modules about reactivity
are FRP libraries anyhow. If we would have “FRP” as a top-level name,
where would the few non-functional reactive libraries fit into? As I
said, I plan to move from “FRP” to “Reactive” for Grapefruit anyhow.

All the best,
Wolfgang
