Hold on, we've already had this discussion:
o I already have a large number of users pulling the module from
CPAN, and am in the process of adding features
o This module was already approved by *this* list, and *they*
recommended the namespace as it is
o This module was originally a companion module to Michael Fowler's
Parse::PerlConfig, which we wrote intentionally to allow developers
to choose a config file syntax on the fly
o The name is appropriate enough, since it's primary purpose *is* to
parse plain syntax config files
In short, I think you would do well to note that dumping it from CPAN would be
a disservice to those already using it, and expecting it to be there. I would
also be somewhat disheartened to have this list go back on a decision that
they already made:
