Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

Description : File::Cache, a filesystem-based object store
File::Cache implements an object store which shares data across
process boundaries via the filesystem. It was written to complement
IPC::Cache, but is suitable for larger numbers of more complex
objects than that module.
.
This module will eventually be superseded by the newer Cache::Cache.
In case you're wondering why I'm packaging this, given the last
sentence: newsclipper uses it, but currently can't depend on it because
it's not packaged.
Cheers,
