Test-CPAN-Meta
==============
DESCRIPTION
Validate your CPAN META.yml files.
This distribution was written to ensure that a META.yml file, provided with a
standard distribution uploaded to CPAN, meets the specifications that are
slowly being introduced to module uploads, via the use of package makers and
installers such as ExtUtils::MakeMaker, Module::Build and Module::Install.
Current CPAN META Specification, 2.0, was finally approved in April 2010,
which forms the basis for the contents of a META.json file. The full
specification is now included with the CPAN-Meta distribution.
