What are the advantages of Module::Starter over h2xs?

    It's more up-to-date with current practices for CPAN. It can generate Module::Build support, makes better starter tests, generates the YAML file, has stub POD that's more useful for modern OO modules, etc. h2xs also generates some strange file layouts, as discussed here in the past.
