name: jan giebels email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] homepage: www.instant-karma.de user-ID on CPAN: INSTANT-K description of script i planned to contribute: pod2xml-0.1.pl this script is for converting pod-dokumentation into a valid xml 1.0 stream. i programmed this for building up a dokumentation server, based on a xml-server in our company we decided to set up a dokumentationserver for our new perl-projekt. the problem we had was, that we programmed lots of modules and scripts for this projekt, but there's no way to store all the dokumentation of the modules and scripts in our database. so i decided to make a small script like pod2html to convert the embedded dokumentation into a valid simple xml-stream. in future versions i planned to add schema support for different xml-server like tamino, support for escape sequences and a configurationpart, so that you can easier set up the output. please remember, that the from:adress of this mail is wrong, fake, whatever you want. please use the adress, provided in the emailtext. thank you jan giebels -- Sent through Global Message Exchange - http://www.gmx.net
renaming
Hi! I'd like to rename NetServer::ProcessTop to NetServer::Portal to reflect greater generality. I plan to make the 'top' screen only one of many different screens and to allow for the addition of new screens by other extensions. -- "May the best description of competition prevail." via, but not speaking for Deutsche Bank
is there a module for ISAM
I've been looking for a module so that I can use Perl to go against an ISAM database. Does one exist. Thanks, Ian Harisay

I'd prefer MPEG:: to Audio::MP3:: because of the name length issues.

I've CC'd this to [EMAIL PROTECTED] That should be enough to get you "listed" in the Module List (eventually, Andreas seems to have been very busy lately). For the upload itself... just go ahead and do it. Follow the instructions on CPAN for getting a PAUSE account and doing the upload. I have recently started revisiting this module. We recently hired some new people here and I have been preoccupied with training them. That is trailing off, and I need to expand upon that module now anyway. Great. Tim.

It doesn't score well on the Ontology axis, but its stratospheric scores on the Brevity and Mindshare axes more than compensate. -Jon

I just hate to screw with that damned ontology axis. But I see three votes for MP3::, so I would not be opposed to changing MPEG::MP3Info to MP3::Info. Please advise me on how this should be handled; it is a fairly well-used module, and such a change will surely cause confusion and pain. -- Chris Nandor mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://pudge.net/ %PGPKey = ('B76E72AD', [1024, '0824090B CE73CA10 1FF77F13 8180B6B6'])
