For the PDL-2.4.10 release, I would like to add
documentation on PDL modules that are not part of
the main PDL distribution.  The idea is to make
it easier for PDL users to find the modules they
need to get things done.

To that end, I did a cpan shell search for
non-PDL distributions and ran a quick test in
the cpan shell for each.  Here are the results:

Builds and passes tests:
ADAMK/ORLite-PDL-0.02.tar.gz
CAVANAUGH/PDL-NamedArgs-0.12.tar.gz
CERNEY/PDL-IO-HDF5-0.63.tar.gz
DCMERTENS/Module-Build-PDL-0.0.3.tar.gz
DKOGAN/PDL-Graphics-Gnuplot-0.02.tar.gz
DRAGOS/PDL-RungeKutta-0.01.tgz
ELLIPSE/PDL-LinearAlgebra-0.06.tar.gz
JBERGER/PDL-IO-Export2D-0.040.tar.gz (deprecated)
JBERGER/PDL-Util-0.010.tar.gz
MAGGIEXYZ/PDL-Stats-0.5.5.tar.gz
MLEHMANN/PDL-Audio-1.1.tar.gz
MOOCOW/PDL-HMM-0.0501.tar.gz
MOOCOW/PDL-Ngrams-0.03.tar.gz
MOOCOW/PDL-VectorValued-0.04.tar.gz


Could not build (Unknown status):
HBABCOCK/PDL-Graphics-X-Fits-0.01.tar.gz
JEDWARDS/PDL-IO-Grib-2.0.tar.gz
JPRIT/ObjStore-Lib-PDL-0.92.tar.gz


Missing requirements to build (on cygwin):
DARIN/PDL-Parallel-MPI-0.02.tar.gz
DHUNT/PDL-Graphics-PLplot-0.61.tar.gz
DHUNT/PDL-NetCDF-4.15.tar.gz


Fails tests:
MOOCOW/PDL-CCS-1.14.tar.gz (requires PDL::VectorValued)

Test reports have been sent from all attempts.
For the upcoming PDL-2.4.10 release, I ask the
authors for a brief write-up/example/intro to
their module.  Between a paragraph and a page
giving enough information that a PDL user could
determine what the module is for, and whether
it is something they would want to install for
their work.

Cheers,
Chris
