in thread Module Renaming Suggestions

Any use of Simple is not a standard: it's just what people do instead of choosing a good name. Don't follow what other people do.

Every peice of software should have as its goal that it will be easy to use. That your goal is also that doesn't really mean anything.

Furthermore, any simplification always happens in some direction. To make things simple, you loose out on something else. Simply tagging "Simple" onto the end of a name doesn't tell the user in which direction you simplified things or which things they can't do anymore.

As I mentioned before, the modules list (@perl.org) is a good place to discuss names (as well as watch other discussions for your naming edification).

Good luck :)
