I think you missunderstood. I didn't ask for CPAN to become a perl sourceforge. I asked if other wanted to have a source forge that specilizes in perl like Rubyforge for ruby. > > The most disturbing thing is that perl is Huge, lots of > > developpers, modules and projects but Ruby that is so small > > does have a rubyforge. > > Right, and how large is it? What does this have to do with my question? How large was CPAN when it started? how large was Sourceforge when it started? why do we have Savanna, Rubyforge and other? I ofound stuff in Rubyforge, I even had dinner with one of the guy having a module there so if I can't find software I can still have good times :-) In fact the most disturbing thing with Sourceforge is that it's too big and it's difficult to find the perl gems in the software bazaar. Cheers, Nadim.
