Perhaps this documentation is elsewhere, but I think perlmodlib
should include text similar to Andreas Koenig's once regularly
posted FAQ​:
comp.lang.perl.modules The Perl 5 Module List (Reusable Software)

If developing modules for private internal or project specific use,
that will never be released to the public, then you should ensure
that their names will not clash with any future public module. You
can do this either by using the reserved Local​::* category or by
using a category name that includes an underscore like Foo_Corp​::*.

Hopefully, I've sent this message to the right place. I couldn't find
an email address for documentation issues in any of the pods.
