Hi Folks

OK, so modernperlbooks.com and Moveable Type have disabled my password for the 3rd time. I get the hint. I won't be back (there).

And no, I didn't forget it. I keep it in an encrypted file along with all the other passwords I've collected...

For the record, in the past I pretended I'd lost my password, and re-registered, but I'm sick of doing that.

As for the book, I have some comments, hoping chromatic stumbles across them :-):

1) Chapter 7: 'grovel': I don't think that's the correct usage of that word. Try 'fossick'.

2) Chapter 9: 'Alternately, use Moose and don't worry about the details' - under DOES(). Hmmmm.

This statement is far too brief. I think it should spell out exactly what a programmer needs to do in this situation when using Moose.

Cheers
