Maybe then we could even test on windows.
The recent CPAN::Reporter release supports a 'cc_skipfile' to flag authors that shouldn't be copied on results. The problem, of course, is that we still leave that up to individual testers. I had suggested on cpan-testers-discuss that we stick a public skipfile in a repository somewhere (e.g. Alias' open repository) and let high-volume testers synchronize on that. But that's very kludgy. Frankly, it's all going to be bad hacks until CPAN Testers 2.0. For authors who don't want to be bothered, I'd suggest the easiest thing is just to filter mail as it comes in.
