Over in the Land of C, where there are no package or module specific namespaces, most of the project teams I have worked with use a 2-5 character prefix to designate which module "owns" each globally accessible symbol. These prefixes are abbreviations of the names of the modules they refer to.
Also, most of my teammates use an IDE like, for example, Eclipse, that provide source code navigation aids. I use Eclipse with the EPIC plug-in for Perl. EPIC provides the "Perl smarts" so that Eclipse's navigation aids work with Perl.
Anyway, with those navigation aids, like the "outline sidebar", "open declaration" and others, finding where a given function is defined is easy.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
