For ???B. In the current set-up, you use CPAN.pm to download, and then

the install tool. A more convient structure would be to have an user
application (maybe the same 'cpan' script), which calls some download
backend to retreive the distribution and then calls the right install
tool per distribution. I would say: ???B is "cpan-NG"
That would be one way of labelling it. I prefer to leave that
labelling up to the people who will actually be writing the software. For all
I know, they might prefer to begin with a direct port of CPANPLUS, and work
from there.
While I agree that ???B plays the role that CPAN.pm does today, I do
think we should leave that to be implementation specific, being the
Agreed, but I keep (probably unwisely) thinking of these as reference
documentation as well as specs, so I thought a note on where to look for more
information would be appropriate; that's what the ???B business is a
placeholder for.
