Yipee!!

It took me ages, but eventually managed to get VCI and all it's
dependencies installed.  VCI was a doddle - it was all the dependencies
on windows that were a pain.

The trick was to take the lowest possible version number to match all of
the packages that depended on it.  So I didn't take the latest of all
packages, just the following versions:

Class::Mop 0.46
Moose 0.30

There were issues upgrading Scalar::Utils, was 1.18 built 1.19 - still
recorded 1.18
MouseX: Warning: prerequisite Scalar::Util 1.19 not found. We have 1.18.
Built it anyway - fingers crossed.


We may want to look at making this a tad easier to install ... this
could put users off!! - maybe a detailed install guide for getting this
on the windows system would be useful - Would we be able to add a
README.win32 to the VCI package that people would download?

Cheers

Rob
