Furthermore, the directory and namespace names should be identical. Thus, boost/ptr_container provides code in boost::ptr_container. Note that this proposal conflicts with some existing libraries (e.g. tuple, bimap). Existing libraries must be grandfathered, but that doesn't mean new libraries should be permitted to make things even messier!
I understand and agree, but I also gave a reason why this requirement is sometimes difficult to meet.
Forgetting about the legacy and naming of existing libraries, in my opinion libraries and namespaces should be singular. I can't think of any reason why it has to be plural.
