Hello monks

After more than one year of incostant work, during which I put out the modules Net::LDAP::Express and Data::Password::BasicCheck, I've finally the first working version of a web application that I'll use to manage entries on a directory server; both the above mentioned modules are part of the foundations of this application.

There is another part, anyway, that I didn't put on CPAN yet. A fundamental part of the application is a series of classes that create window-like web forms: forms are in all similar to GUI windows (they have a title bar, a status bar, buttons...) and come in different "flavours" (menu windows, error windows, windows for data input and output...)

At the moment, they are called LGMT::HTML::Widget::* (where "*" can be, for example, Button, Window, Form, InputForm, SelectionForm, Menu...). I was wondering if I could file them under the HTML::Widgets hierarchy, but as far as I can see HTML::Widgets modules are a bit different in scope...

Any advice?

Ciao!

The very nature of Perl to be like natural language--inconsistant and full of dwim and special cases--makes it impossible to know it all without simply memorizing the documentation (which is not complete or totally correct anyway).
