Schwartz as well. The reason I didn't do that is that I think that you want to have the BasePath as a user-configurable parameter. This parameter should probably be loaded from a configuration file and then you have to defer the loading of HTTP::TransparentCache until after you've loaded the configuration file. Calling init() explicitly seemed to involve less "magic" and would work more like a normal perl module. /Mattias
