Comment 2 Ralf Corsepius 2010-06-23 11:20:28 UTC
@Ian: why do you need this package?

This package appears dead and unsupported, to me:

From http://search.cpan.org/~miko/Data-Taxi-0.95/Taxi.pm
"PLEASE NOTE: Data::Taxi is no longer being developed or supported."

Provided this, unless there is a very strong reason to include it into Fedora, my advise would be not to include it and to revoke the approval, because in longer terms such packages tend to become broken and unmaintainable.

Comment 3 Iain Arnell 2010-06-23 15:50:54 UTC
(In reply to comment #2)

It's an optional dependency of Catalyst-Action-REST. There are currently no active bugs upstream, nor any notable test failures. If it does prove troublesome in future, I'd be happy becoming upstream (or dropping it if it becomes too badly broken).
