+=head1 VERSION REQUIREMENTS
+
+As of version 0.14 I have added a perl minimum version requirement of 5.8. This
+is basically due to failures on the smokers perl 5.6 installations - which
+appears to be down to installation mechanisms and requirements.
+
+Since I don't want to spend the time supporting a version that is so old (and
+may not work for reasons on UTF support etc), I have added a C<use 5.008;> to
+the main module.
+
+If this is problematic I am very willing to accept patches to fix this up,
+although I do not personally see a good reason to support a release that has
+been obsolete for 13 years.
