I know about the naming scheme, but I am not really looking forward
to the two new perl books "Perl DBI-(Any)-cpan:TIMB"
and "Perl DBI-(Any)-mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
That you have the possibility to work your way out in namespace clashes
shouldn't directly mean that you let them happen easily. I would really
like to maintain a certain hierarchical name-space structure on CPAN, where
we strive for unique names, although can work around accidental collissions.
An other reason to have a kind of module/namespace pre-registration is to
see who is (planning to go) working on what. I think that's needed on the
moment.
