I agree with Greg - every module will not fit into a package.

But I also agree with Guido - we _should_ attempt to go through the 137
modules and put the ones that fit into logical groupings.  Greg is probably
correct with his selection for "net", but a general evaluation is still a
good thing.  A view of the bigger picture will help to quell debates over
the structure, and only leave us with the squabbles over the exact spelling
:-)

+2 on ... err .... -1 on ... errr - awww - screw that-<grin>-ly,
