Hi monks, I want to add some modules I have made to CPAN. However I am unsure of what name they should be.

Example: First I have wrapped 'AnyEvent::HTTP' with 'Promises' module to create a 'PromiseHTTP' module.

Then I use that 'PromiseHTTP' module to create a 'PromiseDevice' module to talk to transact with a generic 'device' that other users may own.

The question is what names should they be? Is it allowable to add modules under someone elses name space?

What name should 'PromiseHTTP' be? 

AnyEvent::HTTP::Promise
Promises::AnyEvent::HTTP
Promises::HTTP
HTTPEventPromises
something else?

Should the 'PromiseMyApi' module be: 

Devicename
Promises::Device
AnyEvent::HTTP::Promise::Device
or Something else?

Thanks!
