I would be uncomfortable suggesting the new top-level namespace of BEEP, seeing as there is only one module for it. A closer analog to this module might be HTTP::Lite, rather than SOAP::Lite. Net::BEEP::Lite would be fine, however. Although BEEP has been defined for 2 years, this is the first non-vaporware perl implementation of it that I'm aware of. I would hope that at some point a more comprehensive implementation of BEEP (one that supported the complex peer-to-peer and channel multiplexing) to be implemented at some point. It would seem to make more sense to call that Net::BEEP rather than BEEP for BEEP::Full or something like that. -- David Blacka <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sr. Engineer Verisign Applied Research
