in reply to Ressources for Acme namespace cultural implications

My short description for ACME is
  • "don't take this module seriously, it's definitively not meant for production"
This covers experiments, demos and jokes.

    Seems to be a popular opinion, but since some of them are in the Debian packages, I would say they are in production per se. I wish some programming languages historian would write a PhD on the Acme bestiary. It would really worth it.

      Do you have examples?

      I was only able to find packages related to ACME Protocol which is another beast and namespace.

        A quick search on packages.debian.org for source packages in Debian stable (buster) containing acme finds these (and some non-perl stuff):

        • libacme-bleach-perl
        • libacme-brainfck-perl
        • libacme-constant-perl
        • libacme-constant-perl
        • libacme-damn-perl
        • libacme-eyedrops-perl
        • libacme-poe-knee-perl
        • libacme-poe-knee-perl
        • libprotocol-acme-perl

        Yes, the debian package names are silly, but at least they are consistent:

        s/^lib//; s/-perl$//; s/-/::/g;

        ... and you get the lower-cased CPAN distribution name.

        I should define production maybe a bit better. I am considering some potential artistic use of programming. Imagine an artist write a program that the result is displayed (almost for sure on a computer) in a museum or any other artistic space. Then, eventually those modules could be helpful. And the fact that they would be available in the Debian packages would make them easier to deploy in the museum production or even help the curator keeping them alive (Perl is quoted in this page) for a very long time, if they are considered as of any interest.

        I am currently doing those researches (in an informal way), but examples of what I search for could be:

        It's getting a bit too far...
