Team,

Here are the alternative solutions discussed so far:

0. extern
   export
        - conflicting with other applications of exterm/export
        - a syntactical differentiator is required!

1. extern "DPI"
   export "DPI"
        - allows for future extensions, "VPI", etc.

2. extern DPI
   export DPI

3. extern import
   extern export
        - no new keywords

4. import extern
   export extern

Personally I opt for 3.

Andrzej
