The model class has a conflicting 'description' method which is called 
when when your templates are rendered. I'm planning on releasing a 
Maypole 2.07 this weekend with a fix for this and some other small 
issues that arose with 2.0[56].

Until then, you can either change the column name or change the accessor 
name that Class::DBI sets up for your 'description' column. See 
L<Class::DBI/"Changing Your Column Accessor Method Names">
