At the same time, I've been thinking that I should rename data-dumper to libdata-dumper-perl---I think it was one of the first perl modules packaged, and it preceeded the de facto standard naming convention. It would make sense to make it perl-5.004 specific at that time. I have to admit that I haven't been following things as closely as I might---all I've got to work on right now is a rather finicky alpha and a dial-up line, both of which limit my usefulness. By next week I should have an Intel box and an ADSL line, so I might be able to give a little more input. Still, if someone would like to convert data-dumper to being perl-5.004 specific and send me the diffs, that might be a useful guide for both me and others. Mike.
