If scoping is going to happen, please consider the above before going through 2 iterations of scoped naming.\r\n\r\n### Updated for clarity\r\n\r\ntns-core-modules could then be published as:\r\n**@nativescript/core**\r\n\r\n\u003cbountysource-plugin\u003e\r\n\r\n---\r\nWant to back this issue? **[Post a bounty on it!](https://www.bountysource.com/issues/44386019-scoped-packages-for-n-3-0-nativescript-core-instead-of-tns-core-modules?utm_campaign=plugin\u0026utm_content=tracker%2F12908224\u0026utm_medium=issues\u0026utm_source=github)** We accept bounties via [Bountysource](https://www.bountysource.com/?utm_campaign=plugin\u0026utm_content=tracker%2F12908224\u0026utm_medium=issues\u0026utm_source=github).\r\n\u003c/bountysource-plugin\u003e","author":{"url":"https://github.com/NathanWalker","@type":"Person","name":"NathanWalker"},"datePublished":"2017-04-21T15:32:32.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":23},"url":"https://github.com/4041/NativeScript/issues/4041"}
