Questions regarding PAR::Packer distro and modules

First off, I love the concept of the PAR::Packer toolkit.  As a Windows
admin, this is extremely useful, however I am having some difficulty in
understanding how to perform a certain operation.  I would like to use the
toolkit to create a .par file with all modules my current script uses and
distribute that among my team to maintain strict module version control and
reduce perl distribution variation (i.e. several people on the team use
ActiveState or Strawberry for Windows whilst others use their native
Unix/Linux version).  My hope is that they can make a use statement in
their scripts referencing this "master" par file containing the needed
modules instead of installing them in a variety of ways.   I have read the
documentation for all the modules included in the PAR::Packer toolkit and
found them wanting in this regard.

Any help would be most appreciated.

Regards,

Andrew Sharp
