In my occasional noodlings on this topic, I've wondered what the dependency graph looks like. Which modules are most frequently used in other modules? (Including the recursion -- if A uses B and B uses C, D, and E, then the existence of A should increment the dependency count of C, D, and E, too.) Presumably, core modules would have the most links, but there are likely a second strata of heavily used utility modules, and so on out to narrow, single-purpose modules for particular applications. (Though those could also be very popular and worth of inclusion in a top 100 list.)

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
