=head1 Modules: Creation, Use, and Abuse
Having 57 modules all called Sort will not make life easy for anyone
(though having 23 called Sort::Quick is only marginally better :-).
Imagine someone trying to install your module alongside many others.
-If in any doubt ask for suggestions in comp.lang.perl.misc.
If you are developing a suite of related modules/classes it's good
practice to use nested classes with a common prefix as this will
11 characters. If it might be used on MS-DOS then try to ensure each is
unique in the first 8 characters. Nested modules make this easier.
+For additional guidance on the naming of modules, please consult:
+
+ http://pause.perl.org/pause/query?ACTION=pause_namingmodules
+
+or send mail to the <module-authors@perl.org> mailing list.
+
=item *
Have you got it right?
you picked the most appropriate name? Do you have any questions?
The best way to know for sure, and pick up many helpful suggestions,
-is to ask someone who knows. Comp.lang.perl.misc is read by just about
-all the people who develop modules and it's the best place to ask.
+is to ask someone who knows. The <module-authors@perl.org> mailing list
+is useful for this purpose; it's also accessible via news interface as
+perl.module-authors at nntp.perl.org.
All you need to do is post a short summary of the module, its
purpose and interfaces. A few lines on each of the main methods is
How to release and distribute a module.
-It's good idea to post an announcement of the availability of your
-module (or the module itself if small) to the comp.lang.perl.announce
-Usenet newsgroup. This will at least ensure very wide once-off
-distribution.
-
-If possible, register the module with CPAN. You should
-include details of its location in your announcement.
-
-Some notes about ftp archives: Please use a long descriptive file
-name that includes the version number. Most incoming directories
-will not be readable/listable, i.e., you won't be able to see your
-file after uploading it. Remember to send your email notification
-message as soon as possible after uploading else your file may get
-deleted automatically. Allow time for the file to be processed
-and/or check the file has been processed before announcing its
-location.
+If possible, register the module with CPAN. Follow the instructions
+and links on:
-FTP Archives for Perl Modules:
-
-Follow the instructions and links on:
-
- http://www.cpan.org/modules/00modlist.long.html
http://www.cpan.org/modules/04pause.html
-or upload to one of these sites:
+and upload to:
- https://pause.kbx.de/pause/
http://pause.perl.org/
-and notify <modules@perl.org>.
+and notify <modules@perl.org>. This will allow anyone to install
+your module using the C<cpan> tool distributed with Perl.
By using the WWW interface you can ask the Upload Server to mirror
your modules from your ftp or WWW site into your own directory on
CPAN!
-Please remember to send me an updated entry for the Module list!

Take care when changing a released module.
