One of the goals of the CPAN River model is to get us to focus on cleaning up the river, starting at the headwaters first. To that end, I’ve been thinking about how we might measure “river quality”, and have written up two ideas so far:
http://neilb.org/2015/05/11/measuring-cpan-quality.html <http://neilb.org/2015/05/11/measuring-cpan-quality.html> These are pretty simple, and have some problems, so I’m hoping someone might come up with something more useful. Here are the 6 dists in the most upstream category that have >= 2% failures on CPAN Testers podlators IO File-Path IPC-Cmd XSLoader Locale-Maketext-Simple I think I saw that File::Path was worked on at the NY hackathon last weekend, so maybe that will drop off this list soon ...
