New module namespace



Greetings,

Having carefully perused the list at

http://www.cpan.org/modules/00modlist.long.html

I am reasonably certain that the module I'd like to submit (pending
approval from higher up) does not yet exist, nor does a suitable
namespace exist.

I have written a module that provides a single API for both the Sun
Grid Engine (qsub, qstat and all that) and a local fork/wait module
that runs jobs in a subprocess, communicating through pipes. My
employer uses this as part of a web application that we run either in
Grid Engine or Standalone configurations, and I think it might be of
use to other folks.

One of the tasks my web application runs is called a Scheduler; it
queries a database and submits pending jobs to be run. The current name
fot this module is JobQueue, consisting of two modules,
JobQueue::GridEngine and JobQueue::ForkingLayer. I'd like to use the
same names in CPAN.
