    Default Naming consultation request (proposed Geo::ReadGRIB)

    I'm about ready to upload my first module. It will give read access to
    GRIB format files from Perl. GRIB stands for "GRIdded Binary" and it's
    a format developed by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) for
    the exchange of weather product information. My particular interest is
    having Perl access to Wave Watch III world wide marine whether model
    forecast data which is published daily in GRIB format. My module can
    access all the data by location (lat, long), date/time, and data type
    (wave height, wind speed/direction, ...).

    I propose Geo::ReadGRIB for lack of a more creative name. The top level
    Geo:: already has weather related modules and my module will Read GRIB
    file data and meta data (but not write them).

    I'd welcome suggestions for a better name if there is one. Thanks.

    Default Re: Naming consultation request (proposed Geo::ReadGRIB)

    Based on the response here and elsewhere, Geo::ReadGRIB it is.

    The naming consultation here consisted of no one thinking my name was
    bad enough to make them reply. A clueless mistake would likely have
    brought a response so I have as much of an answer as I needed.

    Thanks,
