Hi, Well I really didn't expect the near-unanimity on any one name that we got. It appears that most of us would be happiest with
P5EE - Perl 5 Enterprise Environment which suits me fine. So unless we get some late-breaking support for "Extensions" or someone clues us in to a strong historical preference within the greater Perl community for "Extensions", we'll go with the new name.

I really am all in favor of simply naming existing modules outside the P5EE namespace as being "P5EE-recommended" or whatever. >I think this initiative is more than the p5EE extension set anyway.
