-This is an abstraction of a Perl 5 module, it is a superclass of
-L<Class::MOP::Class>. A module essentially a package with metadata,
-in our case the version and authority.
+A module is essentially a L<Class::MOP::Package> with metadata, in our
+case the version and authority.

+=head1 INHERITANCE
-=over 4
+B<Class::MOP::Module> is a subclass of L<Class::MOP::Package>.
-=item B<meta>
+=head1 METHODS
-Returns a metaclass for this package.
+=over 4
-=item B<initialize ($package_name)>
+=item B<< $metamodule->version >>
-This will initialize a Class::MOP::Module instance which represents
-the module of C<$package_name>.
+This is a read-only attribute which returns the C<$VERSION> of the
+package, if one exists.
-=item B<version>
+=item B<< $metamodule->authority >>
-This is a read-only attribute which returns the C<$VERSION> of the
-package for the given instance.
+This is a read-only attribute which returns the C<$AUTHORITY> of the
+package, if one exists.
-=item B<authority>
+=item B<< $metamodule->identifier >>
-This is a read-only attribute which returns the C<$AUTHORITY> of the
-package for the given instance.
+This constructs a string which combines the name, version and
+authority.
-=item B<identifier>
+=item B<< Class::MOP::Module->meta >>
-This constructs a string of the name, version and authority.
+This will return a L<Class::MOP::Class> instance for this class.
