[Luke Paireepinart]

Please reply to the whole list, using Reply All, rather than directly to me
or anyone else, unless you want the conversation to take place off-list
(unless you have a good reason to do so, we discourage this, because then
future people cannot benefit from our advice.)  Kent has already indicated
the issue, you are not putting your modules in the proper location.
