Hi,
The following is the description of the package that I wish to
contribute to CPAN. (I have already sent this desc. while registering for
a CPAN id. My CPAN id is UARUN).

perlPOS is implemented purly in Perl (no XS) and it consists of a
number of packages (in the order of 25-30 packages). I am however a bit
unsure about the namespace to choose.
I would like to use one of the following toplevel names
a) POS::
b) perlPOS:: (or)
c) pPOS::
Which one of the above should I use ?
Regards,
Arun
