I think we would be better served having it postpended, rather than prepended.

Well, i guess it all depends whether people who may view truncated
descriptions of our packaged perl modules, would benefit more from
english description, or CPAN description.
I cant honestly say I know; we might actually need to do a user survey of this.

Personally, I think that CPAN ::-:: notation is primarily useful only
when you are actually using CPAN. and if you are using CPAN, then you
have no need of our description anyway :-}
