OK. Let me see if I have the state of this discussion: - Namespace issues seem to be of some interest. PoCo vs POE::Server/Client vs POEx vs POX - No consensus on instantiator name. spawn, create, new, other? - No consensus on 'Wheel-like' vs 'Session-like' like vs 'write-these-handlers' vs POE::Compoment::Server::SMTP like. You're a creative lot. I suspect that there are other interface catagories too. - Some people think that a base class that provides some infrastructure would be a good idea. But no one has assertted what that would look like. - No clear statement for needs yet: What do programmers want from a POE component? Why would a consistant interface to POE::Compoents be a good thing? Are we trying to lump things that are different into the same bucket? Did I get most of it? -- Chris Fedde
