[pooma-dev] std:: Policy for PoomaOps.in?

Jeffrey:
I recently had occasion to add a field of small structs I called 
tsEstimate, which required me to override two functions in "std" 
space to get things to compile. If the PoomaOps code had not 
specifically requested std:: I could have left the new functions in 
an out of the way namespace. Instead, I had to add them to std to get 
the code used.

This is probably a rare occurrence, but, one that should be 
considered. Actually, its pretty close to time for Pooma to enter the 
namespace world, don't you think?
