The following module was proposed for inclusion in the Module List:
modid: Data::Validate::Item
DSLIP: adpOp
description: Validate data items against simple rules
userid: ASTAINES (Anthony Staines)
chapterid: 6 (Data_Type_Utilities)
communities:

rationale:
There is a frequent need in data munging to establish whether data
items meet certain criteria. This is usually dealt with by ad-hoc
verification routines. These are hard to write, hard to maintain and
hard to document.
This module provide a simple interface for writing rules to which
an item of data must conform. This allows you to put all of the
rules which an item must obey in one place. If you have, as is the
common situation, many items of data organised as records, you can
take out common rules, and write these only once.
This is an alpha release, intended for comment and critical
feedback. The interface may well change in response to this fedback.
What this module does not do is allow you to specify rules
involving several data items. The non-existent companion module
Data::Validator::Record will do this some day. Feel free to start
writing it!
