I noticed you released a module DateTime::WorkingHours recently. I'd
prefer that folks not release modules under the DateTime namespace
without talking to the [email protected] list about it first. In
particular, the namespace you've chosen doesn't really fit within the
DateTime namespace guidelines (see
http://datetime.perl.org/index.cgi?NamespaceStandards)
Sorry, I didn't know. I got fast "inspiration" from
DateTime::BusinessHours. But as I look now it doesn't have a log "history".
Heh, I contacted the author of that module too but he never replied.
Would you mind posting something to the [email protected] list to
discuss both the name and API of your module? Alternately, if you don't
want to do that, I'd appreciate it if you'd rename the module so it
doesn't start with "DateTime::".
I don't mind to think of any different name (inside or outside of
DateTime::). What are the suggestions?
Well, if you want it in the DateTime:: namespace, we should discuss the
API first on the list. The key is to make sure that the API looks like any
similar modules.
In this particular case, I'm not sure there _are_ any similar modules,
which is all the more reason to get the API right this time, so that any
similar modules that come along later have a model to follow.
