Hmm. It's a datastructure, not an algorithm, no? Although I don't know where that would put it. Data:: does not seem to be the right place -- it seems to be about data formats more than data structures. I decided to take a look at where all the tree implementations are as possible guidance. Lo, they're all toplevel modules or in Tree::. That would seem to indicate that List:: is the right place for yours. That seems unsatisfactory to me. Really, IMHO the tree modules and yours and probably others more should be in some sort of Datastructure:: namespace.
