the attractiveness of the language.
After all, software engineering is largely about reducing the exposed
complexity of a project.

If the CPANTS "game" gets any M::I-using authors to upgrade, then it
has served its purpose.

t the first line of the Makefile to specify the path to
PARROT_DIR and run "make". My tests found a few bugs in Jerry's
grammar. My fixed version of that grammar is here:

Is there any interest in such a package?
Best wishes,

That sounds very similar to Adam Kennedy's PITA project. Yes, there
is great interest!

It doesn't check for the existence of a t/pod_coverage.t file. It
checks
like incorporating cpanratings into CPANTS (I
do NOT advocate that!) or getting download stats from CPAN (never
gonna happen) or adding voluntary "Someone installed module X" pings
from CPAN.pm.

I
think that's a price worth paying -- at least until we rewrite the
metric to actually test POD coverage (which is a decent proxy for POD
quality) instead of just checking for the presence of a t/
pod_coverage.t file (which is a weak proxy for POD quality, but
dramatically easier to measure).
nd was first released with perl 5
Memoize was first released with perl 5.007003

this, although that would be a huge addition to the dependency list.
With PAR, you could employ a whole separate .exe and probably even do
the core updates.

That function should probably be changed to use FindBin instead of
updir() calls.
