I'm a windows no-nothing. But can't we 'make ppm' from the distros? If so, I can easily automate that. I'll set a script to download each modules that's uploaded and make ppm on each of them.

However I'm betting it's not really that easy huh?

It�s pretty straight forward,


perl Makefile.PL
nmake
nmake test
nmake ppd
tar -cf DateTime-VERSION.tar blib
gzip --best DateTime-Version.tar

perl -pi.bak -e "s|HREF=\"\"|HREF=\"DateTime.tar.gz\"|" DateTime.ppd


A better approach would probably be, PPM::Make. http://search.cpan.org/~rkobes/PPM-Make/


It seems that ActiveState is already tries to build ppm�s for the DateTime suit but fails on prerequisites.
