in reply to Net::Distributed

I had a little flutter there when I saw the use Data::Dumper but was relieved to see that you were only using it for debugging purposes :) see Security Issue with Data::Dumper as a persistence mechanism for a reason why you really don't want to use Data::Dumper for serious serialization.

    I know. There are gonna be other security issues too... I have a Migrator handler which lets nodes migrate, so if you use one of those, you have to make double sure your own code is secure, because someone else might be using it. Perhaps it's fortunate that coderefs can't be serialized ;-)
