in reply to Slurp

Did you notify the author? I agree that a pet peeve of mine is modules with a single name. Me thinks that only a select few should have the power to upload top-level namespaces to CPAN. Perhaps the author wasn't aware of File::Slurp? If this module has anything better than File::Slurp perhaps the author would be willing to submit a patch. Although module reviews on perlmonks is a fine place for this I'd definitely start by notifying the author!

    Of course I did :)

    I wrote him this e-mail, a minute or so after posting the review here:
