The following module was proposed for inclusion in the Module List: modid: Sparky DSLIP: bdpfp description: support functions for Sparky data collector userid: JLHOLT (Jeffrey Holt) chapterid: 12 (Opt_Arg_Param_Proc) communities: similar: I'm aware of none. rationale: The word Sparky was derived from the company logo which has flames over the two 'o's in its name. Over the next few years we plan to produce a variety of perl-based programs that address Oracle system performance problems. Our initial offering is a breath of fresh air for our industry. We hope to reach many customers worldwide with our products and believe CPAN is the easiest, most stable platform for distributing our code. We could, of course, devise a way to tell activestate ppm, and CPAN shell to get our code directly from our server but our installation instructions (not to mention our server's infrastructure) would require more work. Most importantly, for us to use CPAN shell (which I believe is an excellent way to install modules) and store our modules only on our server, I'd have to allow anonomous ftp access to our server. I'm not at all comfortable with that option. enteredby: JLHOLT (Jeffrey Holt) enteredon: Fri Jun 1 21:00:06 2001 GMT The resulting entry would be: Sparky bdpfp support functions for Sparky data collector JLHOLT Thanks for registering, The Pause Team PS: The following links are only valid for module list maintainers: Registration form with editing capabilities: https://pause.perl.org/pause/authenquery?ACTION=add_mod&USERID=aa000000_1aa58b6c3aafbd2d&SUBMIT_pause99_add_mod_preview=1 Immediate (one click) registration: https://pause.perl.org/pause/authenquery?ACTION=add_mod&USERID=aa000000_1aa58b6c3aafbd2d&SUBMIT_pause99_add_mod_insertit=1
