I already edited the description of the module in the metadata to fix the truncate 
problem.
The documentation has been updated too.

This module is intended to give easier portability to Perl database application by 
providing a 
database independant unique ID generator.  It basically implements a simple spin 
locking mechanism 
using full SQL92 compliant SQL.  That way, applications that use DBIx::Sequence for 
their ID generation
should be portable to other database engine without any modifications in their id 
generation code.

It can also be used on database that don't support id generation natively to implement 
that functionnality.


Thanks, 

Ben
