It differs from CGI::Persistent in that it lets/makes the programmer select exactly what is stored, rather than automatically storing/restoring the CGI params, and it uses MLDBM, allowing storage of arbitrarily complex structures. Description: Name DSLI Description Info - - CGI::Session cdpO Persistent storage of complex data in CGIZED I have working code already, and will be soliciting comments on the newsgroups shortly when it's Beta-ready. EAPPROACH! Don't wait until it is beta ready. Make sure you are not reinventing the wheel. Especially, make sure you are not reinventing Apache::Session which is less Apache-specific than it sounds. Note that Marc Hedlund had CGI::Session registered for the past five years; I've corresponded with him and he says he has no plans for it and that he's already emailed Andreas that this is so. Yupp, that has been processed already. -- andreas

[Mike Warwick mwarwick@pobox.com] Re: request to submit numtotext module
Thank you for your consideration. I was unaware of any separate attempts to publish something of this nature. For some reason, the line of discussion o which you referred me and the modules in question never came up in my CPAN searches. In any case, I have reviewed the Lingua::EN::NumsToWords solution, and while I find it less elegant than my own solution, I see no need to further clutter this namespace at CPAN. Best wishes! --Mike on 5/20/2000 3:43 AM, Andreas J.

RE: New userid request
Bundle::Installer sounds like a strange name to me. How does it fit with the description in the module list: BundleiNamespace reserved for modules collections ANDK Could you describe your intentions with it a little? The system consists of four modules and an exectuable, whose current names are: Installer::Base - base class for package modules Installer::Manifest - manifest object Installer::Rule - simple object for handling "rules" (a rule here is defined as a group of regexes which matches against a list of strings Installer::Ruleset - a simple object for handling a list of rules and actions associated with those rules rkit- executable perl script Which is why I chose Bundle::Installer. I guess I'm unclear what is meant by "modules collections". Since these modules are meant to be used only with each other, perhaps they should they not be in the Bundle:: namespace? The internal name that we use for this package is simply 'rkit'. Perhaps App::Rkit would be better? I'll defer to better judgement here. To be honest, I'm not sure if this belongs in the modules section or not. The modules included are primarily there to support the rkit executable and are not extremely reuseable (I could see Manifest, Rule and Ruleset possibly being reused, but definitely not Base). What it boils down to is this: suggestions are 100% welcome. It will probably be a couple of weeks anyway before the legal department gives the go ahead to upload it, so fire away.
