Shlomi, Another option is to just upload the distribution with your changes using your own PAUSE ID to cpan. It will not get indexed, but succeeds in that users who don't know about or trust some external repository can still access your changes via the CPAN network. If you are in Europe in August, you might like to come to YAPC and see the announcement of cpan6, this concern is included in the design requirements and making small changes to other's code will be natural and safe. http://www.birmingham2006.com/cgi-bin/yapc.pl?act=talk-item&talkid=51 Sam.
