Well, screw it. Apparently he's been hit by a bus or something. It'd be nice if you'd correct the mistakes I pointed out in your description but at this point, I can't really complain about you uploading. I don't think DBIx::Lite is a very good name though - maybe something like DBIx::StructuredQueries or ... I dunno. ::Lite just makes me think "great, another unimaginative author who can't spell" and having had a quick look at your docs, you're neither unimaginative not particularly hard of spelling so that doesn't seem suitable ;) However, resubmit this under whichever name you think best and I'll approve it. -- Matt S Trout - Shadowcat Systems - Perl consulting with a commit bit and a clue http://shadowcat.co.uk/blog/matt-s-trout/ http://twitter.com/shadowcat_mst/ Email me now on mst (at) shadowcat.co.uk and let's chat about how our Catalyst commercial support, training and consultancy packages could help your team.
