People always say "hey, if it's useful for even one person, it should be out there", but these are things that are on purpose only useful and meant for the author. Why upload them? CPAN is not our private repository. It's not our backyard shed, it's not our personal storage. Why keep doing this? I seriously don't understand it, and I think people should stop doing it. I personally have my personal stuff either on my personal Git repository or on my Github repository. It's *my* stuff. I try to upload stuff to CPAN that can (might) be useful for others too, hopefully. s.
