cpants not updating; new cpants test request

2007-09-11 Thread Anonymous
looks like the cpants site has stopped updating for about 3
weeks now.

also, would it make sense to have a test to check for warnings
when warnings are enabled globally? many modules do not enable
warnings, but when you use those modules and run the script
with -w, it's possible to get lots of warnings.


add points for registered namespaces

there's a lot of questionable modules being uploaded to CPAN
which create top-level namespaces, very often not even being
self-explanatory. it would be nice to add points for 
modules which have registered namespaces. this should encourage
more appropriate module naming.
