DSLIP designation is manually entered by the author, which means it is subject to typos.

AFAIK (its been 10 years) its a checkbox and/or dropdown menu list with descriptions, so typos not possible :)

While not as easy to type in incorrect information, it is still possible to check the wrong box (I do it probably once a week here at the Monastery as I'm voting) or select the wrong dropdown item, without noticing. The point is that it is voluntary information which means it is error-prone.	[reply]

So you're suggesting Module::Build/ExtUtils::MakeMaker/dzil... add that information to META.* through a plugin of some sort?	[reply]
