Dear monks;

Is there any generally accepted wisdom as to the ordering of use statements in the header of a .pm? Here's the header of one of my modules:

use strict;
use warnings;
use utf8;
use namespace::autoclean;
use Coro;
use AnyEvent;
use LWP::Protocol::AnyEvent::http;
use Net::Twitter;
use AnyEvent::Twitter::Stream;
use YAML::Any;
use DateTime::Format::Strptime;
use Data::Visitor::Callback;
use Log::Log4perl qw(:easy);
Log::Log4perl->easy_init($DEBUG);

use Moose;

has 'twitter'  => (is => 'rw', required => 1, isa => 'Net::Twitter');
has 'listener' => (is => 'rw', required => 1, isa => 'AnyEvent::Twitte
+r::Stream');
has 'mongo'    => (is => 'rw', required => 0, isa => 'MongoDB::Databas
+e');

As you can see, it grew quite organically. I could sort it alphabetically (which at least puts namespaces together), but then that throws Net::Twitter and AnyEvent::Twitter::Stream apart (for instance), which isn't great for determining what sorts of things I'm pulling in.

Any advice is appreciated.
