+=head1 RECURSIVE SUBTYPES
+
+As of version 0.08, L<Moose::Types> has experimental support for Recursive
+subtypes.  This will allow:

+
+Which validates things like:
+

+And so on.  This feature is new and there may be lurking bugs so don't be afraid
+to hunt me down with patches and test cases if you have trouble.

+=head2 Compatibility with Sub::Exporter
+
+If you want to use L<Sub::Exporter> with a Type Library, you need to make sure
+you export all the type constraints declared AS WELL AS any additional export
+targets. For example if you do:
+
+    package TypeAndSubExporter; {
+        
+        use MooseX::Types::Moose qw(Str);
+        use MooseX::Types -declare => [qw(MyStr)];
+        use Sub::Exporter -setup => { exports => [ qw(something) ] };
+        
+        subtype MyStr,
+         as Str;
+         
+        sub something {
+            return 1;
+        }    
+        
+    } 1;
+    
+    package Foo; {
+        use TypeAndSubExporter qw(MyStr);
+    } 1;
+
+You'll get a '"MyStr" is not exported by the TypeAndSubExporter module' error.
+Upi can workaround by:
+
+        - use Sub::Exporter -setup => { exports => [ qw(something) ] };
+        + use Sub::Exporter -setup => { exports => [ qw(something MyStr) ] };
+
+This is a workaround and I am exploring how to make these modules work better
+together.  I realize this workaround will lead a lot of duplication in your
+export declarations and will be onerous for large type libraries.  Patches and
+detailed test cases welcome. See the tests directory for a start on this.
