-=item Examining the tree
+Does concept match the general goals of Perl?, Where is the
+implementation?, Backwards compatibility, Could it be a module instead?, Is
+the feature generic enough?, Does it potentially introduce new bugs?, Does
+it preclude other desirable features?, Is the implementation robust?, Is
+the implementation generic enough to be portable?, Is the implementation
+tested?, Is there enough documentation?, Is there another way to do it?,
+Does it create too much work?, Patches speak louder than words

+
+=item Module Installation
+
+How do I keep from installing man pages?, How do I use a module without
+installing it?
+
+=item Philosophy and History
+
+Why not just use <insert other build config tool here>?, What is
+Module::Build and how does it relate to MakeMaker?, pure perl. no make, no
+shell commands, easier to customize, cleaner internals, less cruft
+
+=item Module Writing
+
+How do I keep my $VERSION up to date without resetting it manually?, What's
+this F<META.yml> thing and how did it get in my F<MANIFEST>?!
+
+=item XS
+
+How to I prevent "object version X.XX does not match bootstrap parameter
+Y.YY" errors?, How do I make two or more XS files coexist in the same
+directory?
