Thank you for your civil and constructive criticism :/ I'm not wedded to 'Recognizer', it was just chosen by analogy to the existing Speech::Synthesiser (except that, uh, I spelled it wrong, or something). 'Recognition' at least avoids the inevitable flamage from people on one or the other side of the Atlantic who feel that their spelling is the One True Way. I wish you'd given a better explanation than just "lame". I think Speech::Recognizer is a fine name; ViaVoice and Sphinx-II are both speech recognizers. (please do not waste electrons by saying "but `recognizer' isn't a word!" or similar pedantries). Also, if the modules were object-oriented (which they aren't, but which they might become in the future), it would certainly look better to say: my $spx = new Speech::Recognizer::SPX; than: my $spx = new Speech::Recognition::SPX; Though I do admit that: use Speech::Recognition; sounds rather good. (If there were a common interface to different speech recognizers, this might be a good name for it) I would, however, like to get an outside opinion on the appropriate namespace. The tone of your message quoted above does not predispose me to cooperation but it's more important for the naming scheme to be consistent than aesthetically/semantically ideal...

I personally feel that neither is necessarily better (David's points were all good) and therefore I would prefer to defer to the preexisting namespace. -- Chris Nandor [EMAIL PROTECTED]http://pudge.net/ Open Source Development Network[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://osdn.com/

Sure. Like I said, really either one is fine with me. I'm not sure if a single module in the Speech::Recognizer namespace is enough to establish a precedent or not, though I think the analogy with Speech::Synthesiser is valid (modulo the issue of 's' vs 'z' :) > If someone had a good reason to choose the current name, then it > does not make a big difference to me.

An informal poll of the people in the same room with me at the moment prefers "Recognizer", I could go either way, though it is kind of inconvenient to change the name of a module so I'd rather not if I don't have to.
