Hello there Slaven,
It looks like doable.. I'll give it a try and see what happens.

Regarding marking it as required during the "make dist", wouldn't that fall 
into CONFIGURE_REQUIRES section?

 Hi Alceu,

why not use Module::Metadata, but just optionally, so your users are not forced 
to install it? E.g. like this (untested):

    if ( $ExtUtils::MakeMaker::VERSION >= 6.46 && eval { require 
Module::Metadata; 1 }) {
        $WriteMakefileArgs{META_MERGE} = {
            provides => Module::Metadata->provides(dir=>"lib",version=>2),
        };
    }

It would be better if this optional 'require' could be made into a mandatory 
one during "make dist", but I don't have an idea how to do this.

Regards,
    Slaven
