## DOWNLOAD AND INSTALLATION

Download a release from CPAN using your favorite tool, such as cpanm, or else
from https://metacpan.org/release/{$name} and then unpack the tar.gz file.

You're most welcome to contribute, in which case cloning or forking the git
repo at { $resources{repository}{web} } is a good place to start.

To build and install, just incant the typical mantra:

    perl Makefile.PL
    make
    make test
    make install
