Hi,
Within the P5EEx::Blue area, I am trying to develop my prototype
code under a directory structure which represents the best
practices of people who release stuff on CPAN.
I would appreciate feedback on this structure because
1. I want P5EE to be a model for others to pattern their own
work after.
2. It is very painful to move files and directories in CVS,
particularly after more than one person is involved in
development.

Currently, my MANIFEST looks like this.

However, I think that I should be using "lib" and "pod" directories
so that part of the MANIFEST looks like this.

What do people think (from your experiences)?
Also, when I make this move, I believe that there is no way in
CVS to move a directory. Rather, I need to do a bunch of
"cvs add" and "cvs delete". Is there a better way?
