I seem to recall that I set up CPAN::Reporter to use Test::Reporter::Transport::File to save reports to a directory, then ran CPAN::Reporter::Smoker with a list of distributions to test. I did that for both versions of M::B and then I parsed the names of the resulting files to see how many distributions changed grades and how. I'll see if I still have my helper code somewhere on my smoke VM. -- David
