in reply to "Vanity Tagging" on CPAN?

Please don't. I'm glad my Perl scripts don't all start with

use GAAS::Web; use GBARR::FTP;

and the like. And what happens in case your module is actually useful enough that once you are no longer able or inclined to maintain it, someone else wants to take over maintenance?

Don't go there. Use a descriptive name. Anything else is pollution.

The module-authors list is a fine place to get naming suggestions if you have trouble with that.

Makeshifts last the longest.
