The following module was proposed for inclusion in the Module List:
modid: DBIx::Pivot
DSLIP: adpOp
description: Transposes (pivots) a table

rationale:
The module is transposing or pivoting a table. I.e taking values
from the columns of a table and using as row and column headers in
the new table, I have found the functionality in MS excel and a
number of other properitary spread sheet and data base packages. I
have been thinking about making this module for a while to avoid
having to start up excel each time I need to 'pivot' a table, I have
also seen several queries for this functionality on some of the
postgreSQL mailing lists.
For development, I have been using the namespace Table::Pivot, but
to my surprise, no root level name space Table exists, I think that
DBIx is the closest rlns, since (at least for me...) most of the use
of the module will be in connection with DBI, although it is by no
means limited to that.
