Notes for version 1.00 This is the initial release. This is a module for working with simple sets of elements where each set is defined in a separate file (one file for each set to be defined). The advantages of putting each set in a separate file are: 1) Set managment can be delegated If all sets are defined in a single file, management of all sets must be done by a single user, or by using a suid program. By putting each set in a separate file, different files can be owned by different users so management of different sets can be delegated. 2) Set files are a simple format Because a file consists of a single set only, there is no need to have a complex file format which has to be parsed to get information about the set. As a result, set files can easily be autogenerated or edited with any simple text editor, and errors are less likely to be introduced into the file. AUTHOR Sullivan Beck (sbeck@cpan.org)
