Collection of Pharo class prefixes for recognized public libraries/frameworks

Due to the lack of namespaces in Pharo, the community has chosen to prefix class names (or even selectors) with a project-specific prefix to avoid class name clashing.

The purpose of this list is to provide a public reference of such prefixes that works as a reference catalog, in order to avoid prefix clashing as well.

Create a pull request with changes to the current file editing the list of prefixes table

Maybe it is a better way to organize the list prefixes, like having one file per class prefix, with the project name as description. E.g. the file WA (no extension) with content:

Seaside Web Framework
https://github.com/SeasideSt/Seaside

This will probably simplify the listing and merging of changes, and expose any clash. But the lookup will have to be done via file names.
