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. --Eric -- "Time flies like an arrow, but fruit flies like a banana." --Groucho Marx --------------------------------------------------- http://scratchcomputing.com ---------------------------------------------------
