OK - slightly off-topic, but not wholly irrelevant, either...
Last night (2006-10-23) I was getting some puzzling results from CPANPLUS, and eventually found that the files at ftp://ftp.cpan.org/pub/CPAN (such as the three control files used by CPANPLUS and CPAN modules) were dated early October (say 8th October) instead of 22nd or 23rd October. I reconfigured to use some alternative locations in preference to ftp.cpan.org, and a whole bunch of previously anomalous behaviours (wrong versions, missing modules) Is this a known problem? Is ftp.cpan.org known to be out of date, or is it (or was it) some sort of accident? -- Jonathan Leffler <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> #include <disclaimer.h> Guardian of DBD::Informix - v2005.02 - http://dbi.perl.org "I don't suffer from insanity - I enjoy every minute of it."
