nntp.perl.org seems to be down atm, so you get the lovley formating of my web based email.. *shrug*
ok, I can see that format working well, I was designing from a frontpage standpoint rather than an organizational(sp?)
my vote is to make it so a book can't be a member of any child nodes.
I think it works ok to have a node contain both books and sub-nodes, because otherwise the perl heirarchy will have to be so amazingly complex in order to hold everything that it would be almost worthless. <a href="http://directory.google.com/Top/Computers/Programming/Languages/Perl/?tc=1">an example of this in practice</a>
