Updated: This happened ages ago. Go get the latest Best.

Neat. Best is missing the feature where you specify the minimum version but otherwise looks good.

Very neat indeed. Is there some way to find out which module was selected? For example, CGI and CGI::Simple have different options, and I'd like to be able to deal with that -- one of the reasons I returned the name of the imported module during the prefer call.

Also, can you do repeated 'use Best's? I thought use would only work once: am I mistaken?

I haven't found a problem yet that can't be solved by a well-placed trebuchet

Repeated use() calls call the ->import function. The code is compiled only once but ->import is called every time unless you passed an empty parameter list like use Something ();. Best provides a which() function which can tell you which module loaded.

use Best qw( CGI CGI::Simple );
my $q = Best->which( 'CGI' )->new;
