in reply to RFC: Class::Moebius

I think you should consider the possibility of extending your mobius module into a klein bottle module. I'm not sure if this 3d functionality should be rolled into your initial work or outside it -- perhaps there is no difference.

    It takes 2 dimensions minimum in order to have an outside and an inside - hence möbius. If you can think of an analogy or use for the third dimension, we could well have Class::Klein.

    By the way, the limerick has another stanza:

    A mathematician called Klein
    Thought the möbius band was divine.
    He said "If you glue
    The edges of two,
    You'll get a strange bottle like mine."
