Re: It's not PHP, is it? (potential new CPAN module)

Addendum
cvm Errata

I seem to have flamed the crap out of my boss in paragraph 3. To be fair to him, I'll point out that he's been the only developer until this year.

"Why not just use CGI?" I have two reasons. First, CGI uses some odd conventions that I find too limiting. Second, CGI starts a new Perl interpreter for each request. I'd rather run the risk of polluting the interpreter and get the extra performance.

It looks like I didn't proof the last 2 paragraphs of my message. Whoops. They still mean what I meant, though.

I forgot to ask: Is there an existing root-level namespace I should use for this? I've heard grumblings about all-caps module names. Is SDH going to be a problem? How about Apps::SDH (or whatever namespace comes out of the first question)? (I ask because I've read grumblings about package names that are all- or no-caps.)
