Can anyone tell me (hope this isn't a FAQ ...) what the status is on whether
templates can be placed in namespaces?  My understanding was this was a matter
of recent debate, with some compilers currently making all template definitions

global.  For my own part, I think it would be a sad decision to make template
definitions compulsorily global, and hence effectively downgrade template
definitions with respect to non-template definitions.
						Cheers,
								Tony.
