  Two things: 1) How would you automate that? How should a fully automated release mechanism decide which version to set? 2) Is it really important that the version is readable to you? Or is it more important that any tool...

  I took a look at Lingua::SWE::Word2Num, and the documentation states that the input text must be UTF-8 encoded. That feels like an awkward API, does it really expect raw UTF-8 code units instead of native Perl strings?

  From the SYNOPSIS:

  use Lingua::SWE::Word2Num;
my $num = Lingua::SWE::Word2Num::w2n( 'fyrtiotve' );

  There’s no word like “fyrtiotve” in Swedish, it should probably be “fyrtiotvå.”

  Why publish each language as its own separate distribution when they appear to share the same dependencies? This approach creates a logist…

  So you are in a quantum superposition of being both interested and not interested.

  Apologies for your confusion. I said I didn't mind being unable to read your closed source, but had curiosity about who your product is for. I did not believe that to be a complicated thought.

  Your documentation says that now, several days after you posted the above. Are you over-promising?

  Things are moving very fast these days. 3 days ago maybe 1996, today 2027 (if PD…
