Mail::HTML requested Namespace

[Joe Blower]

Hi,

I requested Mail::HTML as a namespace on cpan.org, but haven't had any
responses in the last 4 months. I submitted the request twice.

Is there anyone who can look into this?

Thanks.

You're not alone in complaining about this. I asked that question at
YAPC::EU and couldn't get a good answer even there! But perhaps you should
submit an RFC to the module-authors mailing list, which does get responses:
[email]module-authors@perl.org[/email]

You should be prepared to describe what your module does and why Mail::HTML
is an appropriate name. In particular, you should say why you want to name
something that could be confused with the already existing CPAN module
HTML::Mail ([url]http://search.cpan.org/author/PLANK/HTML-Mail-0.02_00/Mail.pm[/url]).
The responders on the module-authors list will no doubt provide you further
guidance.
