in thread Modern::Perl

It's not a pragma in core, so the name modern is not an option.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks this. Lowercase module names outside of the core are a sure sign of hubris, and I usually avoid authors who create them.

    I think of lowercase module names as being pragma-like. Whether they are in core or not is secondary to whether they perform pragma-like functions.

    In other words, location of the module is not nearly as important as its effect on the remaining body of code.

    /me thought we liked hubris?

    Perhaps you mean vanity?
