Which reminds me.  Is anyone working on a CPAN debian package archive?

I remember Schwern making a joke about it after Ingy's plea for PPM help
at YAPC last year.  Did anything ever eventuate?

At the moment, many packages are being built by the debian project, but
it's far from ideal as they tend to be a version or two behind, and only
covering a very small proportion of CPAN.
