Summary: Search index via custom local CPAN package flatfile

Description:
This module provides a common library for working with a variety of CPAN
index services. It is intentionally minimalist, trying to use as few
non-core modules as possible.

The 'CPAN::Common::Index' module is an abstract base class that defines a
common API. Individual backends deliver the API for a particular index.

As shown in the SYNOPSIS, one interesting application is multiplexing --
using different index backends, querying each in turn, and returning the
first result.
