Hi Ron, Yes, TJC is Toby (J) Corkindale. I could change the module name, but there's quite a few things depending upon the old versions of the names, so would prefer to keep them somehow. I'm not familiar enough to know if CPAN (and the cpan/cpanp/cpanm tools) will work if I publish a module that contains both versions in the same package?
ie Test-PostgreSQL contains PostgreSQL.pm as well as postgresql.pm, and one of those packages just inherits from the other. PS. I'm in Melbourne too; perhaps you would have met me while I was running the local Perlmonger meetings for a while?
