Michael,

Just a small note about the CPAN modules URLs: it would be better
to use the following URL

    http://search.cpan.org/dist/DBD-SQLite/

instead of

    http://search.cpan.org/~msergeant/DBD-SQLite-%{version}/

for the following reasons:

  i)  no author/maintainer in the URL
      sometimes the author/maintainer changes

 ii)  no module version in the URL
      CPAN doesn't keep every version released. From time to time
      old versions are deleted, which invalidates the URL.

iii) you always see which is the latest version available ;)
