15

WARNINGS

31       URI objects are difficult to subclass, so I have not (yet?) taken the
32       time to remove mutability from the objects.  This means that you can
33       probably alter a URI::cpan object into a state where it is no longer
34       valid.
35
36       Please don't change the contents of these objects after construction.

43       Pearcey.  Dieter helped thrash out this new implementation, too.
