But (I'm not very familiar with CPAN, but I think it is) is it true that on CPAN you find a lot of modules which depend on other modules, isn't it? Let's say I'm building a package foo which uses a database for storing the data it handles with -- so it depends on PEAR:DB. Following your argumentation, the package foo shouldn't be in PEAR because it depends on the package DB? > That's the only thing I'm saying > should be outside. > > Cache:: is a building block you can use; Cache also defines a lot of how I'm building my application. -- Björn Schotte bjoern@php.net http://rent-a-phpwizard.de/ bjoern@baer.main.de Software dev advocate: http://www.advogato.org/person/baerli/
