Very nifty, it's like Carp::Always but with much more
options/features (so you don't need a separate Carp::Always::Color,
Carp::Always::Dump, and so on).
SQL::Statement
Author: REHSACK <https://metacpan.org/author/REHSACK>
The concept is truly cool, unfortunately the parser is currently
flaky/buggy: one SQL query might work but another valid and
seemingly simple SQL would fail with weird error message. See
distribution's RT queue. <br>

PerlMongers::Hannover
Author: PTC <https://metacpan.org/author/PTC>
Instead of just printing some info, why not make it an Acme::PM or
Acme::PerlMongers like Acme::CPANAuthors? Various stats can then be
produced about the various Perl Mongers. <br>
Cool, but personally I'd rather have something like JavaScript's
properties (since Perl does have lvalue subroutine support):

File::Slurp::Tiny
Author: LEONT <https://metacpan.org/author/LEONT>
More effort needs to be made with regards to documentation,
especially for File::Slurp users looking for alternatives. Why is
this module needed? What are the differences with File::Slurp? How
do the functions behave on I/O errors (since err_mode option is not
supported)? <br>
Clone::PP
Author: NEILB <https://metacpan.org/author/NEILB>
Thanks for providing a pure-Perl alternative for deep cloning.
Otherwise we are stuck with core module Storable's dclone, which
cannot handle Regexp objects out of the box, must use deparse to
handle coderefs, and not to mention is not as fast as it should be
because it's a marshall+unmarshall algrorithm (ab)used for deep
condition. Look at Proc::PID::File for a more proper implementation.
<br><br>
Data::Dumper::Sorted
Author: MIKER <https://metacpan.org/author/MIKER>
Unnecessary. Data::Dumper does have the option to sort hash keys
($Sortkeys, look for 'sort' in 'perldoc Data::Dumper'). <br><br>This
module also does not handle circular refs yet (and probably lacks
other features of Data::Dumper too). <br><br>Also the choice of
returning error ("$Var00 = not a reference" when given
Dumper(1) for example) as result is arguably unwise. <br>
Archive::Probe
Author: FGZ <https://metacpan.org/author/FGZ>
I would personally pick a non-OO, no-nonsense interface based on
File::Find, like: <br><br>use File::Find::Archive qw(find); # or
find_archive <br> find(sub { ... }, "some.tar.gz");
<br><br>instead of the multiline, tedious setup just to search a
file. <br>
Taint::Runtime
Author: RHANDOM <https://metacpan.org/author/RHANDOM>
Nice idea. Perl should really have included something like this
(analogous to warnings.pm for -w). <br><br>However, for something as
security-related as tainting, I personally think the interface is a
bit too complex and not robust enough. There are too many pitfalls
where one can fail to turn on tainting properly. <br><br>* First,
user must remember to import $TAINT, or doing '$TAINT = 1' has no
effect. There's no error/warning for this mistake. <br><br>* Then,
if one also forgets to import taint_start or taint_start, then doing
'taint_start' or 'taint_env' (without parentheses) will do nothing.
Also does not produce an error/warning except under strict mode.
<br><br>* One must remember to 'taint_env' *after* 'taint_start'.
There's no warning/error if one does the opposite. <br><br>I'd
rather have something like this: <br><br>{ <br><br>use tainting;
<br><br>... code is running in taint mode ... <br> } <br><br>use
tainting; <br> { <br><br>no tainting; <br><br>... code is running
without taint mode ... <br> } <br><br>No functions, no variables to
set, no exports. Tainting of %ENV etc should be done automatically
just like -T. <br><br>EDIT: I wrote tainting and uploaded it to CPAN
as proof of concept.

efficient Perl modules.
Oktest
Author: KWATCH <https://metacpan.org/author/KWATCH>
A reinvention of Perl testing modules (it even comes with an
equivalent for 'prove' command), with probably no added features and
some added quirks. (Nested) topic can already be done using
Test::More's subtests. Filtering and setup/teardown can be done with
Test::Class. And I am supposed to replace specific assertion
functions (with specific, helpful error messages) like is(), isnt(),
like(), is_deeply(), etc with just OK()? <br>

HTML::Escape
Author: TOKUHIROM <https://metacpan.org/author/TOKUHIROM>
Still a bit slower than PHP's htmlspecialchars(), but in the same
ballpark. An order of magnitude faster than HTML::Entities. Does not
provide unescaping, but it's okay since escaping is the majority of
depend on Algorithm::Diff (or use the name 'diff', for that matter).

Passwd::Unix
Author: STRZELEC <https://metacpan.org/author/STRZELEC>
No tests. No detailed error status, only true/false (yes, there is a
'warnings' parameter on constructor, but this doesn't give out
warnings on all operations, only some). No locking (although there
is backup, but still). <br><br>Also, some weird choices, why use
bzip2 when creating backup? Or, why still require running as root
(checking $() if we are allowing custom database file location?
<br><br>Between this and Unix::ConfigFile, I'm seriously considering
using Unix commands instead (useradd, userdel, gpasswd, et al).
<br><br>UPDATE 2011-04-21: I created a fork of Passwd::Unix 0.52
called Passwd::Unix::Alt instead, which add some tests and
modifications. Try it out if your needs are also not met by
there's nothing CGI-specific about it, and that's good. So this
module is basically a "path-expander" for hash values.
<br><br>Btw, one thing I use rather often in PHP is naming parameter
as "foo[]" which will automatically add elements to the
$_REQUEST['foo'] array. Perhaps this feature can be considered too.
DateTime::BusinessHours
Author: BRICAS <https://metacpan.org/author/BRICAS>
Just tried it. It works, but the module/dist is not in the best
shape: <br><br>* Test fails (pod-coverage, error in POD) <br><br>*
dependency on Class::MethodMaker not yet specified <br><br>*
Documentation: Synopsis contains mistake (class name is
DateTime::BusinessHours not BusinessHours), the name '$testing' is
not very suitable, there are typos. <br><br>* Style-wise, method
naming is "joinedwords", while in DateTime families it's
"separated_words" (not a big deal though). <br><br>

Bundle::Dpchrist
minimal alright, probably only suitable for simple scripts as the
moment you organize your application/library into separate modules,
you'll want/need categories instead of just level, which is not
provided by Log::Minimal. <br><br>Also, only formats is
customizable, there is currently no way to customize level. And the
levels are "not standard" (not that there is an official
authoritative standard, but the popular convention is
TRACE/DEBUG/INFO/WARN/ERROR/FATAL and NONE). Log::Minimal's levels
are <br> DEBUG/INFO/WARN/CRITICAL and NONE). Surely most people
would expect another level between WARN and CRITICAL, for
non-critical errors? But that is actually just a matter of taste.

Log::Fine
Author: CFUHRMAN <https://metacpan.org/author/CFUHRMAN>
Log::Fine is touted as a framework for those who "need a
fine-grained logging mechanism in their program(s)". But apart
from the emphasis on custom levels, to me there is nothing extra
