    Hi again,

that namespacing stuff really confuses me. Now I wanted to
provide a default layout for an article, with

\def\setuparticle{%
  \dosingleargument\dosetuparticle}

\def\dosetuparticle[#1]{%
  \getparameters[article@][#1]}

\setuparticle
  [title=,
   author=,
   date={\currentdate[year,--,month,--,day]}]

I always thought that this would create values article@title,
article@author and article@date, which could be accessed by a
command like \getvalue{article@date}. However, this does not
seem to be the case (cf. my previous mails about letters). Why?

    Cheers,
    Marco
