Thanks for sharing your work with the world. Rather than Stateful::Tailer, a better name for the module on CPAN might be File::Tail::Stateful, or something like that. People would be more likely to come across your module when they search for “Fail::Tail” on MetaCPAN, for example. There are a number of modules already in the File::Tail:: namespace, but none in the Stateful namespace. Before releasing anything to CPAN, you could also describe your module and proposed name on prepan.org <http://prepan.org/>, which is a place for discussing module ideas to get feedback before releasing them. Cheers, Neil
