Parser-MGC (0.10) *****

The documentation gives cogent descriptions and examples of methods and API enhancement. The interface is friendly OO, so it can be smoothly used. Also, the distribution comes with a full test suite and a handy examples directory.

Dpchrist-LangUtil (1.007)

Why a personal namespace? Possibly vanity? If it is a set used by more than yourself, I wonder if you've ever heard of github or tried having your own server with a mini cpan, for your distributed Dpchrist organization.

Also, I wonder why you don't just use modules that perform seemingly the very same things your modules appear to do. These duplicate packages are maintained by dedicated, active authors. Your forked implementations are susceptible of becoming out of sync in no time.

MIDI-Perl (0.82) ****

I love this package. It has been the source of enjoyment and serious music development for years. Thanks Sean and D. Conklin. :)

I rated "Ease of use" low because I have to RTFM and trial-error until I finally get something working, just about every time, even though I have used this for years.

Pod-S5 (0.08) ****

This has made my YAPC::NA 2010 presentation a breeze, since I'd already started writing it in POD and decided to use s5 for the slideshow. Yay

Please learn about proper CPAN namespaces before publishing. Thanks.

Version 0.1001 should run through the tests without a hitch, for Win32 users... <fingers crossed> :)

The point of ratings is not to become defensive, Dmitry, it is to understand the rater's commentary and fix your code if it is warranted (which it is in this case).

Nice. Reinventing wheels as lumpy trapezoids! Yay! Fortunately the language, Perl, has this stuff already.

package (0.0019) *

Making a stupid, needless top level package is bad enough but naming your package, 'package' is just fucking moronic.

Math (0.499) *

All these things are already available. For instance odd() - WTF? Ever hear of the modulo operator (%)? Is the author actually aware of CPAN or does he just blindly upload redundant things to it with overly general namespaces?

Perl has:
A. Allowed me to be employed and therefore survive.
B. Allowed me to realize every algorithmic task I make for myself.
Thank you Larry.
