Hmm, who gets to decide when a large portion of CPAN might break?

  http://cpan.org/authors/id/E/EW/EWILHELM/Module-Build-0.2808_02.tar.gz

As soon as enough people feel confident that nothing has been completely 
broken?

Any testers want to run a few weeks worth of smokes against it?  I'm not 
sure if anyone is setup to do that.  e.g. for any clean-smoke 
environment - your smoker needs to install the alpha M::B when it sees 
it as required and should mail bugs to this list instead of the dist 
author.  Preferably, it should be tested against both this and stable 
to get an accurate picture of whether the bug is in M::B or the CPAN 
dist.

I would also like to see the pod and podcoverage pass if anybody feels 
up to sending patches for those.
