Reconsider :aleph/-namespaced keywords #700

Open

Description

Problem

Keywords with an :aleph/ namespace are currently used inconsistently: Sometimes the namespace means that the keys are internal (e.g. :aleph/channel), sometimes they are intended for public use and only namespaced to prevent clashes with other keys in the same map (e.g. :aleph/request-arrived).

See #699 (comment) and #699 (comment) for prior discussion which lead to the creation of this issue.

Solution

Still to be determined. One idea we had was to use a different namespace for keys which are indeed not intended for public use (e.g. :aleph.internal/).

Also, we should document :aleph/ keys which are indeed intended for public use.
