Don't get confused. That's "0.0-2"
I've just heard from the developer today and it sounds like the first public
release (you aren't supposed to find those "0.0-*" files) will be 0.1, but
won't be ready for a while still.
I can't quite get it to build, but I don't have a "proper" perl5.8.2 install
(I've got to keep some other running code stable on 5.6.1 because of several
module issues, so 5.8.2 is in /usr/local and `which perl` doesn't take you
there.)
From looking at the source, I can tell you that you aren't going to get a lot
of entities at this point (rectangle + line + circle) but if you have a
perl5.8.2 with a PerlQt3, it might be worth a peek at the interface. (I just
realized, maybe I can tiptoe (ssh) into my wife's gentoo laptop and check it
out:-)
