Ah, now I see where you are coming from. I would say we should definitely not spam CPAN authors with kwalitee metric emails; that is guaranteed to really annoy a lot of them. I feel pushily promoting kwalitee metrics will do more harm than good. And I agree with chromatic that officially endorsing any particular kwalitee metric is a mistake that is likely to cause unproductive flame wars. Best, at least for now, is to simply publish some kwalitee metrics as an optional aid to enthusiastic CPAN authors. If they prove good and useful, they will naturally become better known. /-\ ____________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? The New Yahoo!
