DP-Perl (0.101)

You've got to be kidding. Now anybody can just make a new namespace, named after their own initials? And a module called Perl.pm? All this would be merely offensive and useless, but the meat of the module is downright stupid.

Some of the subtlest CPAN comedy I've seen in years. For full effect, take a look at the source, not just the web documentation.

Unfortunately, his later work in DP::Date doesn't compare.

When will there be a possibility to kick modules from CPAN that only occupy disk and namespace?

This module has a vague and name description. It says it offers "several extensions..." to Perl, but all the functionality it offers is from a single function with one active line.
