why not ownet.perl?

All perl modules have the .pm suffix.

There is a prescribed naming scheme, such as
IO::Socket::INET
and
Math::BigNumber

Apparently the name doesn't (necessarily) indicate inheritance. They want to
prevent namespace polution in the root (first part) of the module name. I've
been looking at the existing heirarchy and while network-related name seems
appropriate, I can't find a good fit. The Hardware::1Wire::OWNet seems like
the likely fall-back.

Net::OWNet would work, but is about as ugly a name as can be imagined.

Module names should have the first char capitalized, but Ownet misses the
point. That rule is often broken: IO::Handle Hardware::iButton,
SOAP::XML::Query ...
