Yes.

Absolutely. It is one of the first things that was discussed. The
decision was to use App::Info during the configuration phase. Since
App::Info is not a common module, and since it is only useful during
configuration the decision was made not to include it as a prereq but
instead to include it with DBD::Pg (since people most likely won't
have it already) and not install it (since once DBD::Pg's configured,
you wont need it anymore).

Comments?

This will be available shortly. David Wheeler is also re-writing the
module from scratch to bring it in line with the other DBD modules to
be more maintainable in the long term - instead of using lots of
custom code it will use the Driver.xst template provided by DBI. But
until that's ready, we will still be supporting the existing code.

Cheers,
jas.
