Hi,
I managed to delete the file Text::Histogram. Hopefully without any changes to
Neves's Text::Histogram.
I changed the name and uploaded mine again with name Text::HistogramChart.

Dear Sirs,
I recently uploaded a new module called Text::Histogram.
Very soon after that Mr. Sullivan kindly pointed out to me that Text::Histogram already existed.
It was uploaded last December by its author Neves.
But CPAN/PAUSE didn't stop me from uploading!
It did mark the module as " ** UNAUTHORIZED RELEASE **", though.
I was wondering, shouldn't CPAN or PAUSE give some kind of warning.

Is it safe for me to just delete my Text::Histogram distro, without any harm to
Neves' module?
Of course, now I will have to rename my module.
I would welcome any help in deciding a new name.
If you have the time, please take a look at my module.
I pondered upon Text::Chart::Histogram but I wouldn't want to start a new
namespace since Text::Histogram is for the moment the only chart I will
publish. On the hand, ASCII::Histogram seems wrong to me because technically my
histogram is not limited to ASCII.
Thanks.
