I don't think we'd have too much trouble getting comfortable with a "mod_perl" -> "mod_perl2" rename, but the difficult question is what to do about Apache::. A rename may make sense for the bare-metal libraries like Apache::Request (what to actually call it is a different issue, because the 2.x version is really an APR:: application). But a rename wouldn't make sense for something like Apache::ASP. Waiting for King Solomon to appear isn't going to lead us anywhere. The community needs an actionable proposal to kick around if you're pining for real change. -- Joe Schaefer --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscribe@perl.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-help@perl.apache.org
