Package that imports with name of dependent package

[David Pratt]

Hi Peter. I'd like to fix the imports, but this would impact the 
portability of portions of the code that currently work with the 
existing package from the framework.

This solution does the trick and allows me to create the package I want 
using a good amount of new material. I don't have to worry about adding 
to the original package each time a release comes out. I'll only have to 
monitor code changes for an impact on my classes, subclasses, etc. Still 
a pain, but a smaller one :-)  Many thanks.

Regards
David
