Inheritance
Class::MOP::Module is a subclass of Class::MOP::Package.
Methods

Overrides "create" from Class::MOP::Package to provide these additional options:

A version number, to be installed in the $VERSION package global variable.
"authority"
An authority, to be installed in the $AUTHORITY package global variable.

This is a read-only attribute which returns the $VERSION of the package, if one exists.
$metamodule->authority
This is a read-only attribute which returns the $AUTHORITY of the package, if one exists.
$metamodule->identifier
This constructs a string which combines the name, version and authority.
