Because it's not (?:likely|going) to happen. CGI.pm should really be Net::CGI, and it has been said by many people who could even do something about it, but do you honestly expect that to happen? Things like these happen when the module authors make them happen. And in some cases there are good reasons not to. Besides, I don't think creating a hierarchy for the sake of correctness (ie ultimately, for the sake of doing so) is worthwhile. Is SGML::HTML::Parser any more descriptive (and thus easier to find) than HTML::Parser? Likewise, I don't think putting Audio:: under Media::Audio:: makes module names any more descriptive. > So, I'm still not sure how to call it then.

That's a good choice, and the one I'd prefer; it's just we don't have such a TLNS yet, so I'd bounce this off the CPAN cabal first just to be safe. -- Regards, Aristotle "If you can't laugh at yourself, you don't take life seriously enough."
