(Note -- this is a different David responding) I think if you add "perl => 5.008" to your PREREQ_PM in the Makefile.PL (and requires in Build.PL), then CPAN and smoke testers should then figure out not to try to build and test your module on older Perls.

Dear david, Thanks for testing my module. The error is like this: Error: Perl v5.8.0 required--this is only v5.6.2, stopped at /home/david/_/_/perl-5.6.2/.cpan/build/IP-QQWry-v0.0.14-LXDUvn/blib/lib/IP/QQWry.pm line 3. I'm afraid all my perl versions are above v5.008, and I don't know whether my module will work happily with v5.006, so I added `use 5.008;' in IP::QQWry to enforce recent perl versions. Maybe this limition is too strict, should I remove 'use 5.008;' in IP::QQWry?
