It has come up on a few IRC channels regarding Module::CoreList and corelist and the fact that whilst one can see when a module first entered core and all the perl versions a module is included with, there isn't a mechanism to indicate when a module departed from core. ( Well, there obviously is if you want to play with %version yourself ). I've come up with two new functions to compliment first_release() and first_release_by_date(): removed_from() removed_from_by_date() Which return the first perl version from which a specified module is removed. I considered that this was more useful than a last_released() type function. ( Not to say we couldn't have last_released() as well ). I've amended the venerable corelist utility as well so it produces this type of output now: $ corelist ExtUtils::MakeMaker::bytes ExtUtils::MakeMaker::bytes was first released with perl v5.6.2 and removed from v5.10.1 $ corelist File::Spec File::Spec was first released with perl 5.00405 The main question is do the function names make sense?
