I certainly don't mean to humiliate anyone. Please accept my apologies. However, does making CPAN a better place require publishing a Hall of Shame on perl.org? http://cpants.perl.org/highscores/hall_of_shame I think what I want from CPANTS is conceptually simple: * tell me (and my potential users) if a recent upload is well-behaved (all but three of the core metrics achieve this) * provide optional information as information alone (packaged by various OS distributions, used by other CPAN distributions) * drop the game, with winners and losers and (especially) scores -- c
