That sounds OK, especially since brian suggested it, too. It also goes
along with WWW::Automate and WWW::Mechanize, which are kind of
automatic clients.

On the other hand, Curl can also do FTP and Gopher. But there's kind of
a precedent with LWP (libwww for Perl), which can also do FTP yet has
"WWW" in its name.

I can't think of anything much better, either. (And I agree that Net::
is not a good namespace, since that's typically for implementations of
specific protocols.)

Cheers,
Philip
