Hi Neil
Understood. It won't be a year :-). And yes, I've decided to upload
Kollos, not Kollos::Placeholder.
Great minds think!

Jeffrey Kegler, author of Marpa (Marpa::R2), is re-writing Marpa and
it now has the Lua language embedded in it. He want me to reserve the
Kollos namespace for the upcoming 1st release (which he's been calling
Marpa::R3).
So, is it OK if I upload a placeholder such as Kollos::Placeholder?
My thought on this:
I think this is ok as long it doesn’t end up sitting there for
years, unused, and blocking others.
I think if a placeholder is there for more than a year, then if
someone else wants the name, we’d have to release it.
I’d upload a module called Kollos — if you upload Kollos::Placeholder,
someone could still come along and release Kollos.
Of course, this way you’ll get first-come on Kollos, so will have to
transfer that to Jeffrey when he’s ready to release.
Cheers,
Neil
