[boost] date_time naming

I'm just getting started with the date_time library, and I think I'm
gonna like it.  I have some quibbles with the naming choices though
(shocking! me of all people!)  For example, why is the nested
namespace called posix_time instead of, simply, posix?  Once you're in
a date_time context it seems to me that _time adds nothing.
Similarly, what's the "p" in ptime stand for?  I can guess, but I can
guess it's also redundant ;-)
