=head1 DESCRIPTION
This is sort of a companion to L<Module::Metadata>. It provides an
interface for getting information about a distribution.
This is mostly a wrapper around L<CPAN::Meta> providing an easy
interface to find and load the meta file from a F<tar.gz> file. A
dist can also be represented by a directory or merely a structure of
data.
If the dist does not contain a meta file the module will attempt to
determine some of that data from the dist.
