Subject: May find false hits
I have experienced several things that should not have been validated as a correct URI. eg. 'www.marselisl' is found in some of my text as a url, so is 'www.info@skive-hallerne.dk'

Both are valid schemeless URLs. URI::Find picks up schemeless URIs (www and ftp) but the heuristic could be tuned. Better yet, it should probably be removed from URI::Find since we have URI::Find::Schemeless now which does a much better job (the schemeless code in URI::Find predates URI::Find::Schemeless). URI::Find has always strived to be a "perfect" URI finder. Sloppiness should go into URI::Find::Schemeless.

I've uploaded a new version of URI::Find, 0.13. URI::Find itself will no longer pull out any schemeless URIs, which will fix the problem you reported (false hits for strings which contain www.*). Roderick Schertler
