Note there is also an (outdated) TODO list on the "About" page >on CPAN Ratings, right next to the links for the source. Okay, but we have requirements for both search.cpan.org and cpanratings.perl.org, right? search.cpan.org is the front-end to most module-searching, and I think it should stay that way, but should have more visible (read: not so deep) links to ratings/reviews and show the "star-bar" in more places. cpanratings.perl.org should have it's todo-list worked on (maybe broken into software and legwork (e.g. 'translations' is not so much software)). Sorry, but maybe I'm not grasping the connection between search.cpan.org and cpanratings.perl.org. The 'star-bar' at search.cpan.org seems to be a local image, but is it pulling the average rating (dynamically) from cpanratings.perl.org? Seems that this is also true for the testers.cpan.org 'pass/fail' counts If these sites have separate maintainers, we should be working on two requirements lists. --Eric
