Re: Need a contractor for HTML::Mason::Critic work

(cc'ing list, as it is on topic and material to the thread)

only by proxy.  look at Perl::Critic.  It addresses the issues you've
raised.  It is easy to indicate the "policies" applied to a codebase.  when
it is appropriate for a component to return() a data structure, disable the
policy which produces the violation message.

Jon and I discussed offline, which is why you have not heard of the project
:)
