Data-Pageset (1.03) — 1 star:

This is reciprocal karma for the author one-starring a
competing module and advertising his own. Bad form. (not a
commentary on how this works) 



This sort of thing is lunacy. What’s the point of MODULE REVIEWS
if they’re going to be turned into crusade vehicles?
  


Can't we just move the site to cpanrantings.org? That's the spelling
I've always used :-)

Works for me…

Well, actually, I’d *like* to think it could be more useful than
that… but I am wondering if there is any hope. :-/

I already find CPAN ratings useful, and would find it even more useful
if it was further integrated with search.cpan.org. 

For example, allowing to sort results by rating. I did this on
Skatepark.org, and include the unrated items at the bottom. (Which
encourages people to rate things they like!)

Alternatively, it could be useful if cpanratings.perl.org allowed some
way to browse modules by topic or keyword, with a sorting by rating.
