Seems I've written this code before...

Somehow I have this idea of keeping my own personal module, so that I never have to duplicate code again. Eventually I migrate code out to production modules.

use Mako132 qw/:database/;

private modules

I have lots of private modules starting with "SMB", my initials. Later, people started putting SMB modules in CPAN, but there "SMB" standing for "Samba". This always confuses me when I look at CPAN and see an "SMB" directory; I think I've goofed up and somehow released my private modules.

So I hereby suggest: name your private modules with a leading "_". "use _SMB::Foo", etc.

Makes sense. Especially for the poor fool named Nathan E. Turner :-)
