[sf-perl] Module Announcement: Perl-Critic-1.01

[Thalhammer, Jeffrey BGI SF]

After more than 18 months of development, Perl-Critic
<http://search.cpan.org/dist/Perl-Critic>  has reached it's first major
release! Version 1.01 is now available on a CPAN mirror near you. 

For those of you who aren't familiar with it, Perl-Critic
<http://search.cpan.org/dist/Perl-Critic>  is a highly flexible static
source code analyzer (like lint, but for Perl code). It automatically
detects potential bugs, awkward constructs and over-complicated code.
Most of the rules are based on Damian Conway's highly acclaimed book
"Perl Best Practices". 

No matter what your personal preferences are, Perl-Critic can help you
and your team write more consistent, robust, and maintainable code.
Numerous open-source projects and commercial development shops have
adopted Perl-Critic as an integral part of their development process.  

So I invite all of you to give Perl-Critic a shot. If you want to see
what it does without installing anything, try using the Perl-Critic web
service at <http://perlcritic.com>.
