IIRC, previous discussions of this sort of thing have tended to feature-creep toward having also test_recommends and various other granularities. I believe there is also the issue that M::B doesn't install these items, it only warns about them being missing. So, getting them installed (or prompting about installing them, etc.) is a matter of CPAN/CPANPLUS support and a new version of the META.yml spec. --Eric -- "...our schools have been scientifically designed to prevent overeducation from happening." --William Troy Harris --------------------------------------------------- http://scratchcomputing.com ---------------------------------------------------
