Howdy,

protobuf reserved the namespace `pb` for protobuf to move to in the future (
https://github.com/protocolbuffers/protobuf/blob/bd9a7104e11740e4bcfbde46c190c2d908ef331a/src/google/protobuf/port.h#L42-L44
). This is very problematic for us as all of our protobufs are in the `pb` namespace and breaks our ability to upgrade. This seems to be quite a common pattern in the industry -
https://github.com/search?l=Protocol+Buffer&p=1&q=%22package+pb%22&type=Code
.
If at all possible can we roll back that change? I suspect it has the potential to break a huge number of users beyond just us.
Thanks,
Roy
