You have a valid argument, and I haven't counted out simply taking what I have and converting it to a patch. Then again, I am also looking at becoming 'glue' by attaching the best elements I can find of each, as well as using other modules to perform tests. For example, the date tests I hope to do with Date::Parse, part of the TimeDate package. Though I admit, this does mean that there would be a great deal of 'reccomended' modules along with D::V::O.

Thank you for the advice. Even if this is eventually rejected by the community as a whole, it will still be practice, and another opportunity to expand my skill with perl. (Flame: Remembers 2 "OOh, what does THIS do"'s that occured during the development up to this point)

Edit: Oh, I would like to know what similaities you see between this and Data::Validator::Item


My code doesn't have bugs, it just develops random features.
