Subject: Bad example or example of bad code?
Adam, Your grammar leaves me wondering whether this module is an example of bad Perl code or simply a bad example. From the POD, it seems like the synopsis should read 'An example of bad Perl code'. Currently it says that you released a bad example. "Reading maketh a full man; conference a ready man; and writing an exact man." - Francis Bacon William

Thank you for the bug report. I'm afraid I can't quite extract either a problem, solution or suggestion out of your bug report, it's not very clear. Are you suggesting I add a synopsis? You were able to understand that this module is unloadable right? It is primarily intended as a teaching aid to prove the underlying point behind the creation of PPI. It serves no other purpose

> Thank you for the bug report.
Thanks for the prompt reply. My report was pointing out what I thought was a grammatical error in the description of your module. You were modifying the noun 'example' with the adjective 'bad'; from the POD, it sounded like you should have been modifying the noun 'code'. At any rate, I think the new description is much more clear :) Regards, William
