Since this is such a large amount of packages, I'm tempted to do a bulk review. And since perl packages tend to be well maintained in Debian with good packaging, I'll allow myself to do that.

- All these packages are in sync
- I've looked over all their packaging, and it is mostly modern and simple, with few patches
- Any that have standard perl-tests have them run as part of the build. Most have tests, but I didn't verify the exact count.
- They all build in a current wily amd64 pbuilder
- They are all looked after by the Perl Group in Debian and the Foundations group in Ubuntu
- A couple are deprecated modules, but no biggie. If an upstream source uses them, it's not worth forcing them to switch right now.
- There are quite a few encryption related modules, but Jamie gave the OK.

So, I'm approving this whole slate of perl modules.
