No, but that's a common misunderstanding. The recommendation is roughly: Claiming "Github.pm" for yourself is somewhat anti-social, where as breaking the ice on Github:: is liberating to anyone else who might come later (because it gives them a beaten path to follow.) But, if Github.pm and a tree under it already existed as a coherent object system/application, you should use GithubX:: for extensions (or whatever the Github.pm author's request is.) --Eric -- "Insert random misquote here" --------------------------------------------------- http://scratchcomputing.com ---------------------------------------------------
