+Software distributions released to the CPAN include a META.json or,
+for older distributions, META.yml, which describes the distribution,
+its contents, and the requirements for building and installing the
+distribution. The data structure stored in the META.json file is
+described in CPAN::Meta::Spec.
+
+CPAN::Meta provides a simple class to represent this distribution
+metadata (or distmeta), along with some helpful methods for
+interrogating that data.
