I don't think it will need much improvement over the next years because I bellieve that CSV won't be improved :-)) But you're right that inside File it's wrong because File says it belongs to the "File systems" and also that CSV might be useful as a separate package to get people to notice it etc.
I just took a look at Net_Socket for the first time. It can read line-by-line, which I think is the major thing File is doing for File_CSV. It's too late (or early) for me to check, so does someone who's familiar with File and Net_Socket know which would be better for this case? Also, the list archives (about 1.5 months back, search for CSV) mention Horde's Data_CSV, named so because it allows parsing of CSV as a file or a string. Perhaps that should be considered when deciding what to name this package. -- Marshall Roch
