Hi all,

After much tireless work by Eric Wilhelm and lots of feedback from
patient & nonpatient users alike, I'm pleased to announce that version
0.30 of Module::Build is now on CPAN.  This is the first non-beta
release in a long time.
Thanks, applied to bleadperl as 34446.
Two local changes remain:
Change 32357 by [EMAIL PROTECTED] on 2007/11/17 04:19:47
        Skip Module::Build ppm test -- not ready for prime time on VMS.

The main problem is that Archive::Tar needs a patch to properly be able to pack a VMS binary into a tarball.

We were waiting for word from Jos on this.

It was my understanding that this was already applied to core, and
it's also part of Archive::Tar 1.39_01:

A::T 1.39_04 looks stable, so we can promote it to 1.40 shortly.

Is there anything specific you need me to do now?

Cheers,
