What do you mean? The experiment is that CPAN authors start to add this field and MetaCPAN will display it. A patch was already sent by Yanick to the MetaCPAN developers to display the contributors on the page of the given module, but my hope is that you'll also be able to list all of your contribution - even if you don't have a PAUSE id. I wrote one post about the technique: http://perl5maven.com/how-to-add-list-of-contributors-to-the-cpan-meta-files and I'll write about it more later on. regards Gabor _______________________________________________ Padre-dev mailing list Padre-dev@perlide.org http://mail.perlide.org/mailman/listinfo/padre-dev
