Hi, I would like to file a request for registration as a module author on CPAN. Here's my information, in accordance with [1]:
* My name: Schneelocke. * My email address: [EMAIL PROTECTED] * My homepage: http://gl00on.net * My preferred user-ID on CPAN: Schnee * A short description of what I'm planning to contribute: I have written a small module as part of a larger project of mine which I would like to make available to the general public since I think others might find it useful as well. Specifically, the module allows its users to retrieve the uptime of an OpenBSD system without having to parse the output of uptime(1); it provides a single function that returns the system's uptime in seconds. I may contribute more modules in the future depending on what I'm going to write. :) Regarding namespaces: for now, the module mentioned above is called Sys::Uptime::OpenBSD, but since [2] states that using the Sys:: namespace is discouraged, I would like to ask whether this is actually acceptable at all. An alternative, in my eyes, would be to create a new OpenBSD:: namespace, similar to FreeBSD:: and the like, and call the module OpenBSD::Uptime instead - what do you think? So long, and thanks. :) 1. http://www.cpan.org/modules/04pause.html/#registering 2. http://www.cpan.org/modules/00modlist.long.html -- 3:09PM up 178 days, 12:22, 1 user, load averages: 0.26, 0.35, 0.37
