I was (am) beginning to feel like the butt of a joke, but CPAN has him as the author of 19 registered modules not including the 14 submodules making up Bundle::Math. I am surprised that the CPAN maintainers would allow such an empty shell of a top level-like name. My need is curve fitting so I am going on to Statistics::Regression but any other information about the author, bundle, and/or CPAN content policies would be appreciated. Thanks,
