I assume this is for the eventual CPAN distribution? Within Makefile.PL, you can specify INSTALLSCRIPT (and lots of other INSTALL*s) to control the locations where you want things installed - see 'perldoc ExtUtils::MakeMaker' for a full listing. But in overriding these defaults one should really ask the user where she/he wants to put things ...
I don't know whether Stas was talking about an eventual CPAN distribution; it would be surprising as I don't really see us distributing the site on CPAN (DocSet yes, but that's ok already).
Anyway, your tips about INSTALL* are just what I was wonderning about. Thanks a lot.
