I have a set of modules dealing with OpenDirectory (dmoz.org) categories, and I'd like some help finding a proper name space for them before going near CPAN.

Given a text or a URL, you can get an ordered list of dnoz categories that match. Hence, the text or URL is categorized. There are currently two ways of performing the match.

An example:

http://www.asktheheadhunter.com/

Top/Business/ (139)
  Employment/Careers (45)
  Employment/Job_Search/Interview_Advice (37)
  Employment/Job_Search (31)
  Industries/Arts_and_Entertainment/Sports/Employment (26)
Top/Society/ (53)
  Advice/Web_Columns (27)
  Law/Products/Self-Help/Family_Law/Name_Change_Kits (26)
Top/Arts/ (52)
  Music/Bands_and_Artists/T/Twisted_Sister/Ojeda,_Eddie (26)
  Animation/Voice_Actors/Information/FAQs (26)
Top/Recreation/ (27)
  Humor/Advice (27)
Top/Computers/ (26)
  Education/Hardware/Hardware_Courses (26)

The module names I use right now are:

OpenDirectory
OpenDirectory::Category
OpenDirectory::Matcher
OpenDirectory::Matcher::Word
OpenDirectory::Matcher::Google
OpenDirectory::MatchResult
...

I guess the best thing would be to find a proper top level name to put it in. Suggestions? Text:: perhaps? Or something with classification or taxonomy? I'm kind of lost here.

Current modules on CPAN having to do with dmoz:

Both of these seems pretty much unrelated to this module.
