That's cause there's too damn many templating modules _already_.  And
that's _my_ attitude.  CPAN is filled with them.

Nobody ever gets forbidden, and nobody has to change their namespace.  But
if you want to get your module listed in the official module list on CPAN,
it has to be "approved" by the modules at perl.org list.

That has nothing to do with being able to upload it.
