Person objects stringify into the name field, for backwards-compatibility.

email

The author's email. Optional.

METHODS

new

my $person = Statocles::Person->new(
    name => 'Doug Bell',
    email => 'doug@example.com',
);

my $person = Statocles::Person->new( 'Doug Bell <doug@example.com>' );

Construct a new Person object. Arguments can be a list of name/value pairs, or a single string with the format Name <email@domain> (the e-mail part is optional).
