Assuming Test::Harness 2.03+ is a drop-in replacement for earlier Test::Harness's (which it mostly is, I think), there's no reason for Test::More to not require it. It implements a core feature of Test::More/Builder. Having every module author who uses todo tests require Test::Harness 2.03 is rather silly. -dave /*================== www.urth.org we await the New Sun ==================*/
