Subject: dzil new could put more into dist.ini
I think at the very least running dzil new without any configuration it should create the scafolding... and fill some of it it out. since you pass a dist name with dzil new the same name as the directory could be filled into the name field. The following just seems like a good simple 'default' name = Name-Of-Dist abstract = version = author = license = copyright_holder = [@Basic]
~/tmp$ dzil new Foo-Bar [DZ] making directory ./Foo-Bar [DZ] writing files to /Users/rjbs/tmp/Foo-Bar [DZ] dist minted in ./Foo-Bar ~/tmp$ cat Foo-Bar/dist.ini name = Foo-Bar author = Ricardo Signes <rjbs@cpan.org> license = Perl_5 copyright_holder = Ricardo Signes <rjbs@cpan.org> copyright_year = 2010 This already works. -- rjbs

again only works if you've put something into ~/.dzil/config.ini
