Hi,
basically I would only like to talk about the name of the module.
This seems more like a categorical problem with perl modules as
there seems to be no clearer definition how to name a certain
functionality. So why donīt you just name it Sysinfo::AIX?
Is this issue discussed elsewhere in detail (naming conventions
for perl modules)? In my opinion itīs desireable to have a maximum
portable solution, so there could be modules like Sysinfo::Linux
and so on, and someone could write a Sysinfo-Wrapper, which would then
delegate queries to the OS-specific modules or just returning some
kind of N/A.
Ciao

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

are good places to start.
