(warning, perl content - if you're not interested in perl please skip this and accept my apologies)

I've been doing an informal survey of the various geo, gps, gis and mapping modules on CPAN and while there's certainly a lot of good stuff there, taken collectively CPAN's coverage of geospatial functionality somewhat resembles the state of the email related modules that provided the impetus for the Perl Email Project.

I'd like to get started with an effort to rationalise and refactor what's currently there, providing well written, lightweight modules with clean interfaces to cover a well defined set of geospatial functionality.

To get the ball rolling I've created a mailing list:
  http://www.hexten.net/mailman/listinfo/geoperl-l

I'm not looking for any particular commitment at this stage - but I'd welcome input from anyone with an interest in this area.
