Hi
Thanx for all the feedback. I've added another entry in the CPAN Author
Notes page http://wiki.cpantesters.org/wiki/CPANAuthorNotes headed:
"Comparing the fast-matrix web page with the non-fast matrix web-page".
In it I included the text below (minus Doug's sig). If you search for
'fast-matrix' you'll get 1 hit, which is it. I did search before I added
the note, and got no hits, so decided to 'do something about it'.

Slaven would have to answer definitively, but fast-matrix isn't
necessarily guaranteed to be accurate. It's not supposed to be. It's
supposed to be fast. Matrix uses the fully-processed CPAN Testers data,
which has been built to ensure that no data is lost between the Metabase
and the website. Fast-matrix polls an API that displays the last 1000
reports (which opens it up to potentially missing data if a lot of data
comes in too quickly). There's also the possibility that fast-matrix
validates SSL to the Metabase and couldn't connect while the SSL cert
for metabase.cpantesters.org <http://metabase.cpantesters.org> was expired.
In short, it sounds normal to me, but Slaven would have to answer
definitively.
