Hi, Last call for alternative opinions about the name... I will declare the name changed to
P5EE - Perl 5 Enterprise Environment on Monday if there is no significant discussion on Friday or over the weekend. Stephen P.S. Please, if you want to change the subject (i.e. what to call "beans" in Perl, send a *new* email (do not "Reply" to an existing one) so that it shows up in the discussion archive as an independent thread. Also, "Reply"-ing and changing the Subject line is not enough. At 12:25 PM 11/15/2001 -0500, Stephen Adkins wrote: >Hi, > >Well I really didn't expect the near-unanimity on any one name >that we got.
