DBIx::Class::DeploymentHandler already provides the ability to write perl scripts to form part of your migrations - maybe the two projects could share code? (if this isn't related to the DBIx::Class ORM then I'd suggest you call it something like DBIx::Migration::Classes or similar to avoid confusion) -- Matt S Trout - Shadowcat Systems - Perl consulting with a commit bit and a clue http://shadowcat.co.uk/blog/matt-s-trout/ http://twitter.com/shadowcat_mst/ Email me now on mst (at) shadowcat.co.uk and let's chat about how our Catalyst commercial support, training and consultancy packages could help your team.
