It can take a while for the subscribers to respond. If there are no objections, you'll probably receive an automated response in a week or so. They seem to process namespace and alias requests in a batch. | [reply] |
Awsome! Thanks for the reply... Since I have never really designed something for cpan before I didn't know.

You should put at least one upper-case letter in
you module name. Modules with all lower-case are
supposed to be pragma. Well, it is hard to
imagine anybody using
net::physical::packetdrop
as a pragma name, but you can never know...
So, maybe you should name your module
Net::Physical::Packetdrop.
And don't forget to read
http://www.perl.com/CPAN-local/misc/cpan-faq.html#How_contribute_modules
also (in case you haven't done already).
Update tye showed me how to format URL. Thank you tye. | [reply] |
Thanks -- (stupidity question - what's a pragma? required library?) At this point the software isn't ready for production. (I recently ran h2xs and made a simple test routine that says the equivilent 'hi world'.)

print 5 / 2;
use integer;
print 5 / 2;
will print 2.5 and then 2.
And there are the two paragmatic modules you should always
use, until you feel confident with Perl:
use warnings;
use strict;
These two pragmas will help you find your logic errors
and dubious constructs.
Unlike normal modules, pragmatic modules last until the
closing parenthesis (or more acurately, until the end
of the enclosing scope). Or you can explicitely
revoke them with
no integer;
See Programming Perl page 136, and chapter 31.
