here, and you want compatibility with older Perls, this
is the module for you.
+Some parts of this interface will work better with
+L<Class::C3::XS> installed, but it's not a requirement.
+
This module never exports any functions. All calls must
be fully qualified with the C<mro::> prefix.
+The interface documentation here serves only as a quick
+reference of what the function basically does, and what
+differences between L<MRO::Compat> and 5.9.5+ one should
+look out for. The main docs in 5.9.5's L<mro> are the real
+interface docs, and contain a lot of other useful information.
+
+=head1 VERSION 0.02
+
+This is the first release of this new module, and on top of that,
+the Perl 5.9.5 it seeks to provide compatibility with isn't even
+out yet.
+
+If you're going to use/depend on this, please keep abreast of
+possible interface changes in the next few versions. Once Perl
+5.9.5 is out the door the interfaces should stabilize on whatever
+5.9.5 has to offer. In the meantime, don't be surprised if
+L<MRO::Compat> and 5.9.5's interfaces aren't perfectly in sync
+at all times.
