Note that, since no one developing perl modules such as this discusses them 
first on the development mailing list, there are now at *least* three modules 
doing very similar things in different ways, with different name spaces.

I would very much like to see a single official API for each scripting language, 
with a good feature set, rather than 3 different ones with different but 
overlapping feature sets.

If no one else discusses these in advance, I will just pick one and commit it 
to svn and wait for patches ... which is obviously not the best approach, but 
no one else seems to worry about that.

Regards,
Buchan
