Subject: Remove useless build dependencies
From Makefile.PL: build_requires ('Test::Distribution'); build_requires ('Test::Pod::Coverage'); Those two dependencies are only required by you, the developer/release manager, and are useless for me, the user. Those could be simply removed from Makefile.PL: - t/000-distribution.t already skips the test if Test::Distribution is missing. - Test::Pod::Coverage is not used in tests -- Olivier Mengué - http://o.mengue.free.fr/
See also http://use.perl.org/~Alias/journal/38822 which gives best practice for distribution tests.
When you can make a suggestion without being patronizing and condescending, I might take it under advisement. As it is, I have no interest in making this change. Request rejected.

Mea culpa. I apologize and I recognize that my formulation was inappropriate. -- Olivier Mengué - http://o.mengue.free.fr/
