SuperPython (0.91)

This was definitely worth a chuckle.

I don't think it should be under Acme:: – that would spoil the point. Misleading POD? No, it isn't. Intentionally incomplete POD? Of course – it *has* to be.

It gets a 3 from me because it certainly doesn't deserve 5 stars as it's not useful for any practical purpose. OTOH, I don't think it's actually bad for this to be on CPAN, so I'm not rating it 1 or 2 either.

The documentation is just fine, thanks very much.

By the way, I am not one of Damian's aliases.

I'm sorry some people don't get the joke. Reading the source and the example .spy files helps put it all into perspective. Go Damian.

Hilarious! The point of not putting it under the Acme:: namespace should be obvious. When reading the PODs for the first time, you really think this is serious. The namespace Acme::SuperPython would spoil this.

Mark, thanks for a great parody!

Agree. The POD documentation is misleading.

Belongs under Acme::.

Intended only to be humorous. But it takes a while to figure that out, which is good under Acme, but unfortunate in a top-level package.
