Subject: Wrong parsing on Unicode-Collate-Standard-V3_1_1-0.1.tar.gz
Hi, Great module! It'll definitly be used in CPANXR =) However, I ran a script that does distname_info on all distributions in my cpan mirror and I encountered the following: - Unicode-Collate-Standard-V3_1_1-0.1.tar.gz seems to be parsed incorrectly. The returned version is 'V3_1_1-0.1' but I expected '0.1'. A quick look in the source for that module defines the package Unicode::Collate::Standard::V3_1_1 so I guess the version should be 0.1. perl version is 5.6.0 on Darwin (OS X 10.2) Cheers, Claes

Good. I am hoping all sites providing CPAN services will so they can cross link easily. Show quoted text

Yes, well sadly it is based on heuristics and we cannot get everything right. The problem is that V3_1_1 does look like a version number that several people have used for distnames, in fact it probably is the version number of the standard. However having _ - and . in a version does look odd. I will see if I can modify the RE to keep all happy Graham.
