Module::Build (replacement for MakeMaker)
Ken Williams

Track: BOF
Date: Tuesday, July 23
Time: 6:00pm - 7:00pm
Location: Marina IV
Moderated by: Ken Williams

Module::Build is a replacement for ExtUtils::MakeMaker. It has been embraced by several p5p-types as such. It is a complete rewrite of the MakeMaker functionality, though it relies on many of the same things (File::Spec, ExtUtils::Install, etc.). For this BOF, we'll discuss what Module::Build can do now (a lot), and plan what we'll want it to do in the future.
