As for ETL, I'd say keep it - ExtractTransformAndLoad is just too long and I'm not aware of any other meanings affixed to ETL beside what you are coding to. For the 'root' name-space I *do* think there are things in the perl world that "DW" could mean (DreamWeaver?). How about DataWarehouse:: or even Data::Warehouse::? Did I mention that you rock? Can't wait to leverage your hard work in furtherance of my own laziness! Thank you, *Corwin* 612-217-1742 612-298-0615 (fax) 612-695-4276 (mobile) * corwin.brust (skype) [email protected] *
