Hi,
I also thought about the idea of having an `Experimental` namespace. If
we develop some new functionality but it might not be ready for
production or we are not yet sure that the interface is optimal, but
there are people interested in this development, then it could be nice
to have a separate namespace for this to get the code in the master
branch. In my opinion, `Impl` should be reserved for implementation
details. But `Experimental` as also used in dune-functions, could be a
place to add new code - that should not be a requirement for any
non-experimental other feature, but could be used in other experimental
code. We then just need to make sure that old experimental features -
that were unsuccessful or are simply outdated - should be removed at
some point and that some experimental feature eventually move into the
non-experimental part of the library.
Not everything can be thoroughly tested by other developers, especially
if the new feature is out of the scope of the daily work. Then it would
be unfair to not merge this code, but also not a good idea to merge it
right away into the public interface of the module. So, the
`Experimental` namespace could be a way in the middle.
Best regards,
Simon
