Will https posting to pause do? If you can live without scp (and config overlaying, although you may want to politely poke BDFOY to add that in - it's something that's I'm starting to need, too) and are willing to customize the release script a little, Module::Release is getting pretty close to what you need. I think you need to add one line to the main module in order to make it work with a 'passthrough' Makefile.PL (it assumes you're releasing off the Makefile.PL) and it does a Kwalitee check, a prerequisites check, an svn or git check (to make sure it's been checked in) and makes sure that make test and make disttest both pass. I like the fact that it's extendable, as well. I've written modules to announce uploads on Twitter, upload to my own personal site, svn import the tarball to the repository I use, and fix the permissions in the tar file that Win32 tars never quite understand. So you could always MAKE a module to do the scp part! It works for most of what I do, at any rate. Call it a suggestion on my part. --Curtis -- Curtis Jewell swords...@csjewell.fastmail.us %DCL-E-MEM-BAD, bad memory -VMS-F-PDGERS, pudding between the ears [I use PC-Alpine, which deliberately does not display colors and pictures in HTML mail]
