26. Specify a DLSIP resource
Proposal:
DLSIP codes should be specified in META.* as a resource.
Comments:
* search.cpan.org has a URL that resolves and describes the DLSIP coding.
I am suggesting that a resource be defined that uses this url (or others
like it) in order to specify the dlsip code for the module. (For
automated processing, we could specify that the dlsip code would be after
the last non-alphabetic character.) (CSJewell)
* A sample use would look like this:
resources:
dlsip: http://search.cpan.org/dlsip?apdOp
* Personally I find the URL redundant. What if it ever changes? Also
'resources' feels to be the wrong place to list this, as it's an
attribute of the distribution not an external resource. However, I would
like to see this listed somewhere, as it can be a useful data point about
the modules within the distribution. (Barbie)
