Thank you, from me as well, Michael. I'm glad I thought to mail you both
on this to get a little cross-talk going. :-)
I generally use my modulereport <http://www.webdragon.net/mr/> script to
stay very much on top of the new modules as they are released from CPAN,
so I try and keep on top of the bug reports as well, since this makes it
so easy to do so.
Cheers!
