I've written an article detailing the major advantages of Text::Balanced::Marpa. V 1.03 has just been uploaded to CPAN.

About Ron Savage
I try to write all code in Perl, but find I end up writing in bash, CSS, HTML, JS, and SQL, and doing database design, just to get anything done...
Have you considered bundling a Text::Balanced::Marpa::Compat module which re-implements the Text::Balanced API on top of it?
The Text::Balanced API is frankly not great, but you might get more users if people have a simple drop-in replacement.
Before coding I thought about making it a drop-in replacement, but the original API is what put me off. I'll have another look, but, frankly, my heart's not in it.
