( [x] Fetch Release ) for Dist::Zilla ( and others ) gives empty document.

This resembles, #35 , except the dists in question DO have a valid manifest.

If I had to guess, I'd say manifest parsing is seeing the comment at the top and failing to continue, but I haven't rtfs.

Thanks for your report. This is strange. I removed the epub from the cache and now it works (for Dist::Zilla). I have to check what's going wrong...
