SYNOPSIS
> cpanm --verbose Task::Kensho::TestingDESCRIPTION
From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kensho:
Kenshō (見性) (C. Wu) is a Japanese term for enlightenment experiences - most commonly used within the confines of Zen Buddhism - literally meaning "seeing one's nature"[1] or "true self."[2] It generally "refers to the realization of nonduality of
Task::Kensho is a first cut at building a list of recommended modules for Enlightened Perl development. CPAN is wonderful, but there are too many wheels and you have to pick and choose amongst the various competing technologies.
The plan is for Task::Kensho to be a rough testing ground for ideas that go into among other things the Enlightened Perl Organisation Extended Core (EPO-EC).
The modules that are bundled by Task::Kensho are broken down into several categories and are still being considered. They are all taken from various top 100 most used perl modules lists and from discussions with various subject matter experts in the Perl Community. That said, this bundle does not follow the guidelines established for the EPO-EC for peer review via industry advisers.
Starting in 2011, Task::Kensho split its sub-groups of modules into individually-installable tasks. These individual tasks will always install all their modules by default. This facilitates the ease and simplicity the distribution aims to achieve. Each Task::Kensho sub-task is listed at the beginning of its section in this documentation.

RELEASE SCHEDULE
Starting with release 0.18 Task::Kensho was moved to a monthly release cycle. This will facilitate a consistent schedule for upstream vendors to track the changes in Task::Kensho.
BUGS AND LIMITATIONS
This list is by no means comprehensive of the "Good" Modules on CPAN. Nor is this necessarily the correct path for all developers. Each of these modules has a perfectly acceptable replacement that may work better for you. This is however a path to good perl practice, and a starting place on the road to Enlightened Perl programming.
