Yes, but this is probably a good thing.

Currently you'd need to write a few lines of code to get at the list,
like, say:
% perl -e '
use CPAN;
for $m (CPAN::Shell->expand("Module","/./")){
next unless $m->dslip_status->{S} eq "a";
print $m->id, "\n";
}
'

Anybody can set up a website to publish this list. It should probably
also on PAUSE. Yes, will do, that way it is always uptodate.

I hope Graham listens:)
