I know a couple of people are waiting for an update to perlcpan, with all its changes. I originally expected to blast out an update last night but I thought I'd post an announcement here as I'm guessing not a lot of you read the planet for news, so I'm repeating:
I’ve gone ahead and begun work on implementing the Perl Policy[1] in my PerlCPAN Repository[2]. *If you are a current user of this repo, you may want to consider removing it from pacman.conf if you do not agree with the changes I’m making.* I’ve yet to commit any of those changes (which are outlined in Arch Perl[3] documents). *The most important thing to consider is that packages in this repository will not be compatible with Arch Linux provided perl packages.* I plan on cutting over the new packages and tuesday morning. (06/19/07) It's my hope that at some point in the future if others see merit in all the changes I've made, they pull in the changes via git or svn.
