No. I'm pretty sure versions have to increase. However, you could try *deleting* all the modules/distributions from CPAN, waiting until it clears out of the 02packages file, and then re-uploading with all 2.003 VERSION strings. That might work, or might not, but I don't think you lose anything other than time by trying it. Note that people with older versions installed might have trouble upgrading without a forced installation of a particular distribution. The most user-friendly thing to do is to bump up to NNN.0001 or whatever. -- David
