If your code relies on one of these "core" POE modules, please be sure
that your dependencies name the module directly:
POE::Loop::Event
POE::Loop::Gtk
POE::Loop::Tk
POE::Wheel::Curses
Any code that depends on POE will not install these modules in the
near future.
We will be releasing these modules in their own distributions,
possibly as early as POE 1.005. We will not retrograde their version
numbers.
To ensure dependency continuity in your own code, please depend on
these modules directly as soon as possible. Your code should then
pick up the right distributions automatically once they're released.
Why we're doing this:
The modules will gain test coverage. As separate releases, they can
register their dependencies with the CPAN. The CPAN testers will
recognize this and test the modules properly.
The core POE distribution divests itself of some "bloat". Code that
people rarely use will still be available separately. Everyone else
may skip downloading, installing and possibly testing it.
Sorry for any inconvenience.
