Checking CPAN, it seems there are three older modules with names starting with "Postgres":
Postgres
Postgres::Handler
Postgres::Handler::HTML
It would be confusing to combine official PostgreSQL modules with those third party ones, so perhaps we can claim the PostgreSQL namespace for official project modules. How about:
PostgreSQL::Test::Cluster
PostgreSQL::Test::Lib
PostgreSQL::Test::Utils
and then if we ever wanted to have official packages for non-test purposes, we could start another namespace under PostgreSQL.
