Hi,
there is a little experiment adding the list of contributors of each
CPAN distribution
to the META files that come with the distribution.
I changed the Makefile.PL in the release branch
http://padre.perlide.org/trac/browser/branches/Padre-0.98/Makefile.PL#L214
to include all the names from the ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS section of
Padre.pm
http://padre.perlide.org/trac/browser/branches/Padre-0.98/lib/Padre.pm#L669
It seems trac does not show the Unicode characters correctly, but I
think in the file the names are written correctly.
Please check that, and check if I have not missed someone.
regards
Gabor

Gabor this is cool,
do you have a link for this 'little experiment'
regards

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

dose this mean that the following is true
without pause
x_contributors =>[
'Foo Bar <f...@bar.com>'
],
with pause
x_contributors =>[
'Foo Bar (FBAR) <f...@cpan.org>'
],
Nope. This means that if we add the x_contributors to the META files
then the authors can be listed.
For now the PAUSE id is deducted from the e-mail if it is give in the
foo...@cpan.org form, but maybe that field should just accept
'FOOBAR' and assume that this is a PAUSE id.
Thanks for page, from the links contained it would apier that
CPAN::Meta::Speclink is in need of an update to reflect this new feature.
The Spec already says that you can arbitrary x_ tags.
If and once this gets popular then I guess it will get a real name and
will be added to the spec.

Are there any modules on metacpan where we can see this new feature in
operation?
The feature has not been integrated into MetaCPAN yet, but there are
two distributions that already have the x_contributors listed:
https://metacpan.org/release/Test-Strict
https://metacpan.org/release/Dist-Zilla-PluginBundle-DAGOLDEN
