The following module was proposed for inclusion in the Module List: modid: Geo::IPfree DSLIP: RdpOg description: Look up country of IP Address. userid: GMPASSOS (Gaciliano Monteiro Passos) chapterid: 23 (Miscellaneous_Modules) communities: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
similar: Geo::IP rationale: This module, Geo::IPfree, can be used off-line and has a free, small(200Kb) and fast database to make the country lookpup of the IPs. It has an open architecture for the database file too. CPAN has a similar module (Geo::IP), but it's not FREE, because it doesn't come with the database and you need to buy it! It's very slow (if you use the PurePerl version) or you need to use a DLL (not open source)!!!!! The database file is very big (1MB) and has a crazy architecture to the user don't see the content!!!! :-/ My module is more simple, but with the same resources, fast and the users are free to do what they want with it! I can't deal with the developer of Geo::IP to make it like Geo::IPfree or to work with him, since my architecture make the moudle 100% free and the developer of Geo::IP showed that he don't want this. ... Well, my module is done and I want to publish it ;-) Graciliano M.
