I *did* that, but no official sactioning of the module has been forthcoming. As I've said in previous conversations on the list, I'm not going to just upload whatever modules I feel like, I'll only pollute the namespace I'm granted by you guys. > Again, I apologize that we've left you disappointed. Look, I'm a big fan of CPAN and Perl in general, and I appreciate the opportunities I've been given to give something back in other modules. I just want this system to work. All I expect is this: either "register" the module so it shows in the pause interface, or tell me no, you don't think it's a worth-while addition to CPAN. And take a few weeks to make up your mind, if need be. But don't leave me hanging indefinitely when I have other modules that need to know what module to use (i.e., is it going to be bundled with my other modules in a non-polluting namespace, or will it be available on CPAN). If those expectations can't be met (and I don't think they're unreasonable), let's find a way to recruit the community to help out. As always, I'm more than happy to help in any way possible. But you need to give me a chance. I'm sorry, but the last three modules have been a bear to get onto the pause interface where I can more properly manage them (updates to meta-data, etc.), even though I've been following the pause guidelines faithfully. --Arthur Corliss Bolverk's Lair -- http://arthur.corlissfamily.org/ Digital Mages -- http://www.digitalmages.com/ "Live Free or Die, the Only Way to Live" -- NH State Motto
