* That is still not a good idea. As brian says, metainformation * like that should not encoded in the module name. Also, it wouldn't * necessarily encode *enough* information, such as whether the author * has some recommendations to use instead of the deprecated one. * * Why can't the Makefile.PL of a deprecated module simply be changed to * make the right discouragements, along with the documentation (=head1 * DEPRECATED, maybe?)?
I'm hoping for something that would actually get noticed, but I'm not willing to go so far as to break existing installations. -Dave
