At first I thought I might have deleted two revisions of

missing revisions.
http://search.cpan.org/dist/SOAP-Lite/ only shows SOAP::Lite up to
0.60a, but I know for a fact that there's been a 0.67.
There is a 0.69 at http://search.cpan.org/~byrne/SOAP-Lite-0.69/
But it contains a module SOAP::Packager that cpanid BYRNE does not
have permission to upload. Permission is given to KBROWN due to first-

But you will not see this dist under /dist/SOAP-Lite/ because it
contains unauthorized modules.
http://search.cpan.org/dist/WWW-Mechanize/ shows 1.29_01 that I
uploaded earlier in the week, but 1.26 has disappeared.
I do not see WWW-Mechanize-1.26.tar.gz in
http://www.cpan.org/authors/id/P/PE/PETDANCE/
but it is on backpan at
http://backpan.perl.org/authors/id/P/PE/PETDANCE/
Did you delete it via PAUSE ?
Different mirrors have different sets of modules. For example:
* http://mirrors.ibiblio.org/pub/mirrors/CPAN/authors/id/P/PE/
PETDANCE/
shows 1.24 and 1.29_01
* http://mirror.datapipe.net/CPAN/authors/id/P/PE/PETDANCE/
Please tell me someone's aware of this besides me.
Not all mirrors update at the same interval from the CPAN master. So
some will appear to be older than others.
search.cpan.org monitors mirrors for "freshness" and any download
link is redirected to a mirror which should be new enough to have the
required file.
