ExtUtils::ExtLib or something? ...that could be useful :)

*>True enough. I'll investigate further. You may see Bundle::MattXML yet :-)

My evil plan is to have Bundles become vogue and then once there is a
large number of them it would be somewhat democratic to use them in
picking modules for SDKs or bundles :) You could be the first on your
block to participate in this evil plan[tm]. :)

Live the Bundle, be the Bundle :)
