I'm having fun with Java (really!), but the real-world use of packages 
is driving me crazy.  If I were a corp. with a web site I might have a 
something like this: org.davesjava.firstlgproj for a package 
specification. I guess the disk drive files would be something like: 
home/org/davesjava/firstlgproj (I use Linux, so there are no '\').

However:
* I don't have a commercial organization (yet), so I would need 
something else - but what?  Would jsoft.davesjava.firstlgproj be ok?  It 
seems to work for one trial, but down the road...

* I read that Java programmers like to have a source path and a class 
path on the hard drive, which makes sense.  So how does that work for 
package specifications?  Would it be: src/jsoft/davesjava/firstlgproj 
and class/jsoft/davesjava/firstlgproj ?  Assuming so, would a package 
specification of jsoft.davesjava.firstlgproj still be ok?

* There is a conflict between a simple file structure and a conventional 
package specification.  For example, I may like:
home/jsoft/src/firstlgproj and home/jsoft/class/firstljproj , but that 
translates into jsoft.class.firstlgproj - not exactly to convention.

So, I'm looking for some suggestions from people that have been there 
done that.

Thanks,
Dave
