I don't think there's an official community, so I don't think we can have an official community site. I switched all my Pod-to-HTML stuff, like dzil.org's engine, the Perl Advent calendar, and perl release announcements, to using metacpan some time ago. metacpan is open source and can be contributed to with patches, which means, to me, that it's more likely to be a community effort than search.cpan.org. So, I am in favor of the change. Rejecting it isn't a big deal, I think, but I predict that it will just end up being accepted in the future. -- rjbs
