DT::Locale doesn't need YAML! WTF?! It includes a META.yml file, courtesy of Module::Build, but so do many other modules. > I checked the Module::Build status and it is listed as > fail.

Is there a standard? Well, I think Module::Build is definitely the way to go, but I don't want to force anyone to use it. I've used it for most of my modules on CPAN, with the exception of DateTime.pm and older ones I've not yet converted. I've been meaning to convert DateTime.pm as well, though I may wait til the XS compilation pieces of Module::Build are known to work on Win32. -dave /*======================= House Absolute Consulting www.houseabsolute.com =======================*/
