16 From <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kensho>:
17
18 Kenshō (見性) (C. Wu) is a Japanese term for enlightenment
19 experiences - most commonly used within the confines of Zen
20 Buddhism - literally meaning "seeing one's nature"[1] or "true
21 self."[2] It generally "refers to the realization of nonduality of
22 subject and object."[3]
23
24 Task::Kensho is a list of recommended modules for Enlightened Perl
25 development. CPAN is wonderful, but there are too many wheels and you
26 have to pick and choose amongst the various competing technologies.
27
28 The plan is for Task::Kensho to be a rough testing ground for ideas
29 that go into among other things the Enlightened Perl Organisation
30 Extended Core (EPO-EC).
31
32 The modules that are bundled by Task::Kensho are broken down into
33 several categories and are still being considered. They are all taken
34 from various top 100 most used perl modules lists and from discussions
35 with various subject matter experts in the Perl Community. That said,
36 this bundle does not follow the guidelines established for the EPO-EC
37 for peer review via industry advisers.
38
39 Starting in 2011, Task::Kensho split its sub-groups of modules into
40 individually-installable tasks. Each Task::Kensho sub-task is listed
41 at the beginning of its section in this documentation.
42
43 When installing Task::Kensho itself, you will be asked to install each
44 sub-task in turn, or you can install individual tasks separately. These
45 individual tasks will always install all their modules by default. This
46 facilitates the ease and simplicity the distribution aims to achieve.

75 Since version 0.34, Task::Kensho has made use of the
76 "optional_features" field in distribution metadata. This allows CPAN
77 clients to interact with you regarding which modules you wish to
78 install.
79
80 The "cpanm" client requires interactive mode to be enabled for this to
81 work:
82
83 cpanm --interactive Task::Kensho::Async
84
86 <http://www.enlightenedperl.org/>, Perl::Dist::Strawberry
87
89 This list is by no means comprehensive of the "Good" Modules on CPAN.
90 Nor is this necessarily the correct path for all developers. Each of
91 these modules has a perfectly acceptable replacement that may work
92 better for you. This is however a path to good perl practice, and a
93 starting place on the road to Enlightened Perl programming.
