"Arary" will not do. Please fix this typo and re-submit. :-)
And here is the rationale for choosing Array::Heap2: Well, there is no good rationale, but while registering, I found that Array::Heap has been registered in what seems 1998 already, however, a module hasn't been uploaded in the last 5 years. (I didn'T see this at first because my searches were for existing modules only :) I've contacted the author, but haven't received a reply yet (but it's not been a long time).
Interesting. CC'ed to John Macdonald, to see whether he is willing to
abdicate that namespace to you.
So far, no reaction (but that could just mean he's on vacation or so).
Anyways, since it seems that he didn't even register that namespace
himself, I'll CC: the person responsible for the registration, Andreas
König :) Maybe he remembers what happened back then in more detail. Maybe
not...
I can't come up with the reference (despite having found it quickly the
first time, but now all my google searches fail to find the mail where
andreas says he'll register that modulelist entry).
Ah well :)
Google doesn't index printed books. Mastering Algorithms with Perl promises on page 101:
....the routines to apply binary heap ordering to a user-provided array will be put in a separate module called Array::Heap.
I put the two co-authors on the CC. Maybe they know more about the fate of said module.
