Of course. But I wasn't proposing using CPAN as a revision control
system. I just have a number of people, on different lists (or none),
that have expressed interest. I'm _hoping_ some become collaborators and
offer to help out, in which case I will set something up. Or at least to
provide constructive feedback about interface,, structure, etc. But at
the moment this is a very new project and I was looking for an easy way
to make the latest dev versions available quickly for people to download
and examine.

Easier than installing your own I suppose.

LOL! True, but I don't think CPAN ever pretended to be a revision
control system.

That being said, someday having one available tied to CPAN could be very
cool under these types of circumstances.
