I think the goal here is a good one. I think that the implementation may be one of the better ones we can have given our current emailing system. Pod::Wordlist is a list of perlish words for things like Pod::Spell to ignore. Perhaps Test::Reporter::BlackList (or T::R::Preferences or some name) needs to be a set of people or modules that don't get mail in some circumstances. With open repositories like Adam's or Google Code, it's almost "add yourself" for module authors. (But, those who don't want the reports probably don't participate in shared repositories.) Good idea! -Andy
