Can you please clarify what you mean by this (and preferably soon, as I
am writing a reply to Tim and the Modules List right now).

For example, do you mean that you did not know that my release consists of
about a dozen closely related (to be used together) modules?

Or, do you mean that what I am doing should not be in a top level
namespace (I actually like a top level namespace)?

Or, do you mean that I should not have a 'brand name' because I didn't
intend to before?

Or, did you think that my solution was less complicated or targeted
differently than Alzabo or Tangram?

Please let me know what you meant so I know how to take it.  Thank you. --
