I've written (yet another) static-site generator, using HTML::Template along with Text::Template. Currently this tool is distributed as a standalone application.

(This is even more standalone than usual, as although there are modules involved in the implementation the ultimate "make install" concatenates everything together to make installation as simple as copying a single file to a directory on the user's path.)

I've had a couple of suggestions over the past year about uploading to CPAN, but I'm hazy on where to put it. I guess that i should use "App::Templer", but even that feels too specific.

ObLink: The generator uses plugins, allows you to write pages in Markdown, Textile, or HTML, and handles perl code too, it can be found here: http://github.com/skx/templer/

So, to be explicit, I want to ask if there is a preferred namespace/prefix for applications, rather than standard-modules? I'm happy to junk my current concatenation solution, and work with "perl Makefile.PL; make install", but before I do that I need to know what to call my modules.
