Except that the global skip file would need to apply to individual
bots, not the entire cpan-testers architecture. Again, I have no
problem with human reports. It's the bots I mind. I also expect that
at some point there might be a bot that I WOULD want to sign up for.
I see it sort of like a robots.txt, where you're able to set different
rules for different clients.
# CPAN tester bot info file v0.1
humans:
report-by: SMTP
foobot:
report-by: none
barbot:
report-by: Mechanism-name
or whatever.
