Nono, there's no need to be pedantic in defense. When the Music::GUIDO
namespace will be as crowded as the Apache or XML namespace, then we
can reconsider the question, but for now, registering Music::GUIDO is
enough.
How you package the module, especially the question if you should have
one file for each namespace or not, is just a matter of taste. In perl
both is possible, so CPAN is not going to change that:-)
