If you are using Build.PL define the {requires}{perl} = VERSION field. If you are using MakeMaker (Makefile.PL) you should upgrade ExtUtils::MakeMaker to 6.48 and use MIN_PERL_VERSION parameter. Perl::MinimumVersion can help you determine which version of Perl your module needs.

Add a META.json to the distribution. Your buildtool should be able to autogenerate it.

Add 'use warnings' (or its equivalents) to all modules, or convince us that your favorite module is well-known enough and people can easily see the modules warn when something bad happens.

Error: Archive::Zip, Archive::Zip::Archive, Archive::Zip::BufferedFileHandle, Archive::Zip::DirectoryMember, Archive::Zip::FileMember, Archive::Zip::Member, Archive::Zip::MemberRead, Archive::Zip::MockFileHandle, Archive::Zip::NewFileMember, Archive::Zip::StringMember, Archive::Zip::Tree, Archive::Zip::ZipFileMember

Add all modules contained in this distribution to the META.yml field 'provides'. Module::Build or Dist::Zilla::Plugin::MetaProvides do this automatically for you.

Add a 'repository' resource to the META.yml via 'meta_add' accessor (for Module::Build) or META_ADD parameter (for ExtUtils::MakeMaker).

Add SECURITY(.pod|md). See Software::Security::Policy.

Add SECURITY(.pod|md) and add a contact address. See Software::Security::Policy.

Add CONTRIBUTING(.pod|md). See https://docs.github.com/en/communities/setting-up-your-project-for-healthy-contributions/setting-guidelines-for-repository-contributors.
