Subject: Module dist size unnecessarily large
This might seem odd given the day and age, but I think the current size of this module's dist (at almost 40 megabytes) is a bit extreme, when compared to the actual size of the module code itself (at just 13 kilobytes!) Inspecting the dist, I see the bulk of the size coming from the sample data files that are only used at least once, in the module's testsuite. I recommend splitting off this sample data from the module dist and configuring the testsuite to download this data at the end user's behest (you can put this sample data in your PAUSE dir, I think, then call LWP or similar in your testsuite to get this when the test is not run under smoke/automated environment.)
