Subject: Task-Moose is not a Task
It seems to me that Task-Moose is not really a Task. It declares dependencies in the POD like a Bundle, rather than in the META.

No, the dependencies are declared in the Makefile.PL (and none of them are listed in META.yml because they are all optional). This is probably suboptimal, but it is also nothing like a Bundle. -doy

Yes, I see that now. I stand corrected. I didn't even know you could do that sort of thing. Very neat! Then do you think that dynamic_config should be set in the META.yml then? I guess strictly speaking the configuration isn't really dynamic. But in terms of dependency resolution, it kinda is.

Is there any best practices documentation out there that describes how best to declare a Task or Bundle distribution?

Not that I'm aware of. And I'm not saying there is anything *wrong* with this Task. The dynamic_config flag is just a way of signaling that the META for this distribution is not static -- that prerequisites cannot be known until after the user has chosen which features to install. It seems like the right thing to do for Task-Moose.

It looks like all outstanding questions have been answered.
