OK I can see on one hand, if you're a prolific Module Author. You've likely already written, or chosen a skeleton creator that suits you best. OTOH, if your a seasoned Author, but not terribly prolific. I can imagine one might look to something else, rather than write their own, that seems to best suit their style. Then OTOH, there's the "aspiring author". That has a keen sense of Perl, and is looking to cut their teeth, on their first Module.

In my humble view. I see this as potentially appealing to the latter two mentioned. Providing enough flexibility for those who could but might rather not write their own. Or as a easy "first step" for those whom are not already knowledgeable in the ways of the great CPAN.

So, to me. I wonder if it might not be wise to break it up thusly:

Module::Cooker
Module::Cooker::Templates
Module::Cooker::License
Module::Cooker::Tutorial
