I suspect this isn't what you were talking about, but we could also assign
weights to various components:
1. The number of bug reports and their severity.
2. Number of days since last release.
3. The number of CPAN tester reports (total, separating test failures is
useless since those are mostly a waste of time)
4. The number of other modules which have a dependency on the current module.
Multiply each number by its weight and sum them. Skip if no bugs are in RT (or
multiply the first result by the next 3?)
I guess such thing should be part of CPANTS.
