Subject: we can not create publishing points whose name contains '-' and '_' via Win32::WindowsMedia
We can create publishing points whose name contains -/_ (eg: my_channel)manually on the WMS console(wmsadmin.msc), but when we do the same thing by a perl script using Win32::WindowsMedia, we got an error of "Publishing Point Name Invalid". I read the code for WindowsMedia.pm, and found that only strings limited in [0-9a-zA-Z] are permitted, is it essential?

This is not essential but more a strict checker as at the time of writing it was unclear which characters, beyond alphanumeric were supported. I will add in - and _ however / will probably cause issues. I can get this re-uploaded in the next 8 hours.

This has now been uploaded to CPAN as version 0.258 so should be available soonish for download.
