Hi everyone, This has already been posted on the dev list, but with no replies (however previous feedback has been positive to this regard), so I'll pass it through here for some feedback before going on with it.
To find out how the new namespaces would look, I have gone through the process of categorizing all mod_perl modules found on CPAN (by searching for the Apache:: prefix). What I came to was this: http://users.skynet.be/pereinar/mod-perl/modules.txt NOTE: I am *not* suggesting we rename all existing Apache:: modules, that issue has been raised many times before, and is clearly impractical. This list is only to get an idea of what categories could possibly be needed. Think of it as a way of wrapping my mind around what is already here. From this, and some comments from other people, I have come to a set of Module naming guidelines, which I just placed online for your perusal: see here: http://users.skynet.be/pereinar/mod-perl/products/apache-modules.html#Module_Naming_Conventions Some questions I got which I'm not too sure of: - I created the Apache::Util:: namespace. However, one person thought the Persistent:: namespace to be too specific, and would prefer to rename Apache::Util:: to something like ::Misc, ::Lib, ::Extensions or ::Addons, and add the Persistent:: modules there. What do you think? - I originally had Apache::Auth::Authen, ::Authz and ::Access, but Robin Berjon told me he preferred to have the 4 as top-level namespaces.
