in thread Naming a CPAN module that watches for closed sockets

Hello NERDVANA,

> ..watches for the socket to get disconnected, and "does stuff"

so why not something IO::Socket::ManageDisconnected or IO::Socket::GetDisconnected ?

Or if you wont something with more humor.. in Czechia they have a small troll in houses that eats sockets unpairing them.. ask choroba for the name

    The trolls eat socks, not sockets. They are named "lichožrouti", wich translates to something like odd-eaters. The Oddsocketeaters even have their Wikipedia page and it seems the film exists with English dubbing.

      I'm enjoying this idea, though I worry that nobody would find the module if I named it that.

        Nobody? I think OddModuleEaters might still find it...
