At the beginning there was the void. Then antimatter separate from matter
and the big bang happened... maybe too early ? :-D

Well, the beginning was a mail from Lukash attempting to define some
specific aspect of C++ like method naming and namespace.
We were talking on how to integrate these changes and was agreed to
put into spice-server doc so we didn't have to change generation
and publication of this document.
