Subject: module doesn't follow convention for the abstract section in pod
Hi David, The pod abstract for your module doesn't follow the conventions, and as a result MetaCPAN and search.cpan.org (and possibly other tools) can't extract an abstract for your module. This means that MetaCPAN doesn't present the module in the usual way, in search results. The first thing in the pod should look something like: =head1 NAME Regexp::Constant - provides commonly-used regular expressions, defined as constants If you're not interested in Perl any more, I'd be happy to do a release to address this. I'd also fix up the dist to follow modern conventions for CPAN distributions. Cheers, Neil
