I'm just about to finish up a module that someone might find useful.
It emulates two utilities found on IBM Mainframes, IEBUPDTE and
IEBPTPCH. For a general discussion, lets just say that these two utils
are similar to tar/untar. I wrote them so that I can bundle local
files to upload, and so that I can un-bundle files downloaded from the
mainframe.
If I were to start fresh, I'd like OS390::IEBUtils.
(A bit of history: IBM's OS has gone through many names, the three
most recent are 'MVS', 'OS/390', and 'z/OS', so it's a little tricky
using the OS name as an identifier.)
The two most closely related existing modules are MVS::VBFile and
Convert::OS390.
Your thoughts are appreciated. I've got a good bit of work in the
modules, and don't want to gum up the works with an ineffective or
misleading name.
Thank you.

Hello,
I would be interested in this module.
I think MVS::IEBUtils for the name would be a good idea, because the MVS
already exists as a top level namespace.
regards,
Reinhard
