So a notice along the lines of "This file was packaged with the
Foo-Bar-0.42 distribution" in the POD should suffice.
I think that's my conclusion; version the submodules individually
and have a notice in POD to reflect the version of the
distribution they belong to.


This could be easily added to my Devel::Required module (available from CPAN now ;-)


Thanks for the food for thought. :) I don't know if anyone will
agree with my arguments, but I hadn't thought about this in
detail before, and your question was a nice opportunity to mull
over the issues.

I think the "packaged with distribution" is a _very_ nice extra addition that could be automatically handled with Devel::Required. Something like:



=head1 DISTRIBUTION INFORMATION


This file was packaged with the Foo-Bar-0.01 distribution on Friday January 9th, 2004 on 14:12 CET.
