+Summary: Type.Namespace returns empty string instead of null
+
+Description of Problem:
+The property Type.Namespace returns an empty string if no namespace is 
+defined for a type, .Net returns null in this case.
+(I don't know which solution is better, the .Net or the mono, but the 
+property should return the same value in both environments)
+
+Steps to reproduce the problem:
+Run this code:
+
+public class NameSp{
+    public static void Main(){
+        System.Type myType = System.Type.GetType("NameSp");
+        System.Console.WriteLine("myType.Namespace==null : "+(myType.
+Namespace==null));
+        System.Console.WriteLine("myType.Namespace==\"\"   : "+(myType.
+Namespace==""));
+    }
+}
+
+
+Actual Results:
+myType.Namespace==null : False
+myType.Namespace==""   : True
+
+Expected Results:
+myType.Namespace==null : True
+myType.Namespace==""   : False
+
+How often does this happen? 
+Always
