The DBI namespace is reserved for the DBI itself, the DBIx namespace is intended for extensions to the DBI. I suggest that you find an appropiate name in the DBIx namespace, that will aid your intended users in finding your module. I have always felt that DBIx::Simple isn't so simple (one mans simple is anothers complicated), so could you find something more descriptive. Discussions of DBI related matters ought to take place on the dbi-users mail-list (you can find it on http://lists.perl.org). -- Henrik
