13       expects the format AUTHOR/DISTFILE
14

PERL VERSION

16       This library should run on perls released even a long time ago.  It
17       should work on any version of perl released in the last five years.
18
19       Although it may work on older versions of perl, no guarantee is made
20       that the minimum required version will not be increased.  The version
21       may be increased for any reason, and there is no promise that patches
22       will be accepted to lower the minimum required perl.
23
