Choosing A Webhost:
A web hosting service is a type of Internet hosting service that allows individuals and organizations to provide their own website accessible via the World Wide Web. Web hosts are companies that provide space on a server they own for use by their clients as well as providing Internet connectivity, typically in a data center. Web hosts can also provide data center space and connectivity to the Internet for servers they do not own to be located in their data center, called colocation. more...

CPAN naming advice for a SlimServer interface: msg#00011

Subject: CPAN naming advice for a SlimServer interface

I'm looking to upload my first module to CPAN, so I've come looking for some namespace advice.

SlimServer is the brains behind the Squeezebox hardware music player
(http://www.slimdevices.com/). It happens to be written in Perl.

It's controllable over the network, and I'm writing a module to act as a client for this, at this stage just to use with a script that allows you to play an audio file by, say, double clicking on it. I'd like to distribute this via CPAN, since it makes it so much easier for people to get hold of it.

Now, SlimServer puts its code under "Slim" (although SlimServer itself isn't actually on CPAN, and can only be downloaded from the Slim Devices website), so a reasonable name for my module would seem to be Slim::Remote. Net::Slim::Remote has also been suggested.

Any comments?
