You know, CPAN is a collection of contribution by many people. While I understand the frustration, there is an easy way to improve the situation. If you think "this is not my job", then no one will do it. I might have missed it, but I don't see your name here: http://stats.cpantesters.org/testers.html The most basic way to help is to configure your CPAN client so it will report every success and failure to the CPAN Testers and to the authors of the modules. http://wiki.cpantesters.org/wiki/QuickStart After the initial set up, you don't have any more work with it. If you want to help a little more, then set up a CPAN smoker on your system, that will send the reports long before you actually need the module. http://wiki.cpantesters.org/wiki/SmokeTools Gabor _______________________________________________ Perl mailing list [email protected] http://mail.perl.org.il/mailman/listinfo/perl
