Subject: Spelling Mistakes
Hi:

I discovered two spelling mistakes in the POD for this package. We've patched it for the Debian package; you may want to apply these changes in your version control. Note we neither need nor are we asking for another release, as I think that would put undue burden on the CPAN mirrors for such a tiny issue.
