I'm updating the meta statistics <http://www.thepierianspring.org/meta.stats>, and seeing:

generated_by: Module::Build version 0.22, without YAML.pm

I was wondering about future variations on the above. For example, when the YAML stuff goes into CPAN::META::Specification.pm or whatever, what will the above line say. Maybe:

generated_by: Module::Build version 0.22, via CPAN::META::Specification version 0.01

I think we ought to actually have that as a rigorous field, e.g.

 META_spec: 0.01

or

 META_spec: Foo::Company::META 0.01


I think the idea behind the "generated_by" field was something essentially human-readable, so people could figure out who was to blame if the generation went awry.
