Moo is pure Perl5 code. It hasnt any non-core deps, so Dancer2 wont bring
half of the CPAN. 

The fact dancer2 is based on Moo is a huge benefit for Dancer itself,
because it gives all the goodness of post-modern programming to the core.

Take a look at the roles we have, at how the hooks work and how we can
factorize stuff like headers or configuraiton bits. Also think at the power
of lazyness in a web framework. All this is possible thanks to Moo, at a
very reasonable price: one dependency only.

Anyway, my announcement was sent in order to get feedback about
application upgrades (from Dancer 1 to 2), so please, dont turn this into a
discussion about Moose/Mouse/Moo/Mo/M ;)

Thanks.
