d, then I'm happy to
see reports for them.
Authors do not need to support older versions, and often the reports
verify that distributions are no longer supported for a particular
version of perl. As David stated, it's all just data.

With 1162 uploads during March [1] (the highest ever), and already 635
so far this month, a single dist release should be fine. Deleting the
older releases would help though.

you're about to delete a
set of distributions that should really be kept available? No one would
be listening to know that it should still be kept.
I would prefer a suggestion email to authors to delete, rather than an
email telling them that their distributions will be deleted unle
e distribution,
unless you meant to split it into a separate data distribution.
Cheers,

ail on CPANTS because they are attributing fails in other
distros to mine. Eg, the failures for Net-Google-DataAPI are being
attributed to CPAN-Testers-Data-Addresses.
If I had the time I'd look into it further, but CPAN Testers 2.0 is top
of the list at the moment :)

Hi Ian,

I'm pretty sure that is one of the email addresses that bounces as an
unknown address, for the CPAN testers stuff I do. I will check a bit
later to see exactly what email address it was sending to.

It looks like the DNS is failing as that should resolve to
stats.cpantesters.org. I'll look into that. Also note that the wiki
should be referenced at wiki.cpantesters.org, as the grango.org
sub-domains will eventually be depreciated.

as a string, could still be
honoured, but for things like CPANTS, and ultimately Debian & RedHat
(where Gabor is heading) newer distributions would be able to make it
much clearer to packagers what license a distribution was meant to be
released under.

tring "OS unsupported" just needs to be part of
the output string, you can put more relevent stuff in their too if you
want to :)

to anyone needing to
use that version of Perl.
If Module::Build wasn't installed, it should have used
ExtUtils::MakeMaker, but for whatever reason that didn't happen, and it
might be worth chatting to Chris to understand better why.

think it's more important to say you write Perl. In my experience, the
business world doesn't distinguish between scripts and applications,
they talk about the languages they use. It's only holy language wars
that seem to make an issue of it.

to it from the search.cpan.org page, and there are several different

During cpan smoke testing, if the tester is using CPAN::YACSmoke the environment
variable, $ENV{AUTOMATED_TESTING} is also set to indicate to the author that
smoke testing is being performed.

simple die() with "No support for OS" or "OS unsupported" as the error
string or the requirement of a Perl version higher than the current one are
the current string captures for NA reports. It's this list I was thinking to
extend, although the PERL_VERSION_TOO_LOW catch and any 3rd party app should
really generate another type of report.

UNGRADED, INCOMPLETE, PENDING or something completely different, depends on
having agreement from you guys.

ed was when one of the 3 stages
failed, and the top level namespace matched a platform name that wasn't the
current platform. This was why a while ago there were some NA reports for
distributions in the 'MAC::' namespace. There was a case insensitive test that
thought it was in the 'Mac::' namespace.
Hope that clarifies a few points.

Barbie.

We may be sending automated reports, but there are real humans on the other end

Thanks for all the info and links. I will look more into what pieces I can add. My
biggest disappointment so far is the lack of support for creating X-Headers, so these
header links might solve that.

Hmm. I may need a rethink of the module. Well it was a good idea while it

Is Devel::DebugPrint an appropriate name or do I need a rethink?
