Leon has kindly forwarded to me Autrijus' notes from the last CPAN meeting which unfortunately I couldn't attend:
http://cplan.kwiki.org/?MinutesAccordingToAutrijus
and the information about this new list.


I'm most interested in the outcome of the two topics: 'Group Authors' and 'Modules with several versions on CPAN'.

1. Group Authors

    * PAUSE has existing mechanism to use mailing lists as author keys
    * The goal is for it to stay consistent across maintainers
    * Groups should get their own directories
    * Maybe groups/id/P5P in addition to authors/id/F/FO/FOOBAR?

Sounds very promising. What are the plans for implementation this. I'm willing to help test things. We could use Apache-Test for this purpose which is maintained by Doug MacEachearn, me and Geoffrey Young at the moment, but more maintainers may join later.

2. 'Modules with several versions on CPAN'.

I couldn't find this issue resolved/discussed in the notes.

What's going to happen when mod_perl 2.0 is released on CPAN? All users will then get mod_perl 2.0 fetched even if they want mod_perl 1.0. mod_perl 2.0 doesn't replace mod_perl 1.0, so using the-latest-version-is-the-one-you-want approach doesn't work here. Have you discussed this issue?
