There is a collection of perl packaging "best practices" under
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackagingDrafts/Perl . Note that these aren't
official guidelines, but are generally what perl reviewers will use when looking
at a package.

An interesting approach :)  I find "spectool -g foo.spec" helps to download new
versions of sources with slightly fewer mouse/key strokes than wget.
