in thread RFC: New rootlevel CPAN namespace: XHTML

As i said before, i would be perfectly happy with HTML::XHTML::Table, but in retrospect, i really wish that i had registered HTML::Table before Mr. Peacock did. :(

Mr. Peacock did not...the original author was Stacy Lacy, who had looked for volunteers, once upon a time, to take over the module. There were no takers. Two or three years later, Mr. Peacock came along with some enhancements, but could not contact Stacy Lacy and asked the perlmod mailing list whether he could take over the module so that his enhancements could be implemented. Since I still had the original request from Stacy Lacy (1998), I forwarded it along to the list and presto, Mr. Peacock was the new owner.

That particular namespace has been around for quite some time.

    Thank you very much for providing (and hunting down) that info mojotoad. I would now like to publically apologize to Mr. Peacock for disrespecting his work.

    Mr. Peacock ... i am sorry.
