If you configure Mirror-cpan to "http://backpan.cpan.org/"; you'll get insulation from a module being deleted because a newer version was uploaded and an old one deleted. It's also hourly-current with the latest releases.
Right now the "Master entry" is Primary: ftp://ftp.funet.fi/pub/languages/perl/CPAN/
I guess this could be changed to http://backpan.cpan.org/ if that machine holds _every_ availaible CPAN module at any version number (or at least the latets version + let us say 3 versions back)
That's a pretty fast machine, so you don't need mirrors of it.Yes, but also a single point of failure if we would exept those modules from the distfiles mirror system.
Yes, I agree. As I said, I would suggest we change the Master entry to reflect this machine
Perhaps that should be one of the choices in "fink configure".
