Hi.  Thank you very much for taking the time to review the code.  It is
very valuable.

Right.  Fixed.n

Ok.  Removed.

I added a DEP-12 ref, but do not know which URL to use for the YML
specification, so that will have to be fixed later. :)

Hm, perhaps.  I have no strong opinion here, but picked one with a pure
perl implementationn and a function to load a file.  Could not find a
file loading function in YAML::XS.  Am I looking for the wrong thing, or
do I have to read the file myself?

Heh, can't please all critics, but I modified the code to keep
perlcritica happy.

See attached updated version.

+Info: The DEP 12 metadata file in the source is not readable.  This

+Info: The DEP 12 metadata file is not well formed.  The formatting
+ need to be adjusted to match the YAML specification.
