This didn't seem to make it to the list, trying once more.. ----- Forwarded message from Kevin Meltzer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ----- Date: Sun, 17 Aug 2003 21:34:04 -0400 From: Kevin Meltzer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Module Name Suggestion
Hello, I'm working on a module to do some validating of US SSNs above any beyond seeing if they are "9 digits". I'm currently working off the area data located at: http://www.ssa.gov/foia/stateweb.html Currently, the module (infancy stages, so I want it on the CPAN so others can pitch in) validates SSNs based on those area ranges, making sure the group isn't '00' and the serial isn't '0000'. I plan to work in the High Groups next. As well, it will return the state for a given area. I am working with the package name of SSN::Validate. No SSN:: root namespace exists. I'm not sure if it should be Validate::SSN, as it would then sit next to Validate::Net which could be seen as a namespace pollution. I'd rather follow suite with the *::Validate modules. Does SSN::Validate or SSN::Valid seem ok to use? Any other suggestions?
