most acme modules are fun, but my favorite is Acme-Apache-Werewolf | [reply] |

How can you think keeping werewolves out of your directories is not really useful?

Considering the caveats that the author includes, my curios-but-not-really-useful prize goes to Quantum::Entanglement and Quantum::Superpositions.
I really like Quantum::Entanglement, and have had great fun with it in some spare time projects, but as far as I can understand, these modules are so complex that they should not really be trusted for production code. I have been told as much on other occasions, at least, and the Bugs section in the Quantum::Superpositions POD is not very assuring ...
There are undoubtedly serious bugs lurking somewhere in code this funky :-) Bug reports and other feedback are most welcome.
But any! And all!

There are times when Q::S is really useful.

Everyone seems to forget Acme::Bushisms
Maybe not fascinating, but certainly funny. | [reply] |

Not I says the author of Acme::MJD and Acme::DeepThoughts
:D
MJD says "you can't just make shit up and expect the computer to know what you mean, retardo!" | I run a Win32 PPM repository for perl 5.6.x and 5.8.x -- I take requests (README). | ** The third rule of perl club is a statement of fact: pod is sexy. |

I personally like Bone::Easy.
Its idea of a pickup line is very insteresting...
Not that I would *think* of using them. *inn*

Acme::JavaTrace
is a bit interesting, but much like Java, I'd rather not use it. ;-) | [reply] |
