in thread RFC - Module::Cooker - UPDATE

I need to think on this. My gut is telling me that there is a reason that what you suggest would not work, but I can't put my finger on it. :)

As to versioning/theming of the templates, that is something I had not thought of. I just assumed (yeah, I know) that using git to handle that for the distro was enough.

It helps to remember that the primary goal is to drain the swamp even when you are hip-deep in alligators.

    Well, yeah, using git is enough for your purposes of keeping track, but what about folks who come to depend on your module? and your sharedir h2xs-1.0.0 set of templates ... which included the controversial Fuzzy.PL and the obsolete Fnork.PL , both of which are gone in Module-Cooker-0.02 .... but Module-Cooker-Fantastic-0.01 depends on both files and doesn't include a copy.... or some such fantasy scenario :)

    :D

    Your template sets probably won't change that drastically ...
