dose this mean that the following is true


without pause
x_contributors =>[
'Foo Bar <f...@bar.com>'
],

with pause
x_contributors =>[
'Foo Bar (FBAR) <f...@cpan.org>'
],

Thanks for page, from the links contained it would apier that 
CPAN::Meta::Speclink is in need of an update to reflect this new feature.

regards
kevin
