in reply to CPAN module versioning for slight changes

(1) In my opinion, just bump it. Version numbers are cheap. If your current is 0.002, just make it 0.003.

    That what I ended up doing (hence why 0.002 was released a day after 0.001). Just seemed silly for a missing entry in MANIFEST that caused test failure (tests succeeded on my system because the necessary files were already there, they just weren't getting packaged in the tarball which I didn't realize).

      Cheap... if you're not a tester.

      What?

        Did you hear about the Tester's issues?

        All I'm saying is that one who knows better should either advise alternate avenues to do their testing before they send up a new version, or otherwise man up and Contribute to CPAN Testers.
