I think the main reason the modules list as it stands is not that useful is _because_ it's not being actively maintained and re-organized/categorized as needed. If someone (Sam) were to take on this task, I think it could become much more useful. Plus the current module list is integrated into search.cpan.org, it's just that no one uses it ;) The top page includes links for the module list categories! -dave /*======================= House Absolute Consulting www.houseabsolute.com =======================*/
