Re: MooseX::Templated - pre-CPAN

MooseX::Templated-0.01 pushed onto CPAN

http://search.cpan.org/~isillitoe/MooseX-Templated-0.01/lib/MooseX/Templated/Role.pm

Please ignore any code quoted in this thread as some changes to method
names, etc. have been made since then. Hope it is useful - all comments /
suggestions welcome.

Cheers,

Ian
