Sure, just release a new 1.x version of your module that works for older

Provided that the PAUSE lets you do that - I don't know if it allows
version numbers to go backwards. But yes, assuming that it does, then
that is exactly what would happen.

Actually, it does not. The pause indexer will reject your upload if it detects 
version numbers going backwards.

On the other hand: Releasing a 2.x.y that works on 5.6, then a 2.x.y+1 that 
works on 5.8, then a 2.x.y+2 that works on 5.16 should do the job fine and the 
cpanxxx mirrors should pick up the newer versions working on older perls.


This is a problem for POD2::ES, also, because we want
to publish POD2::ES v5.14.2.09 and POD2::ES v5.16.0.01 at the same time,
mainly for to save the translated OOP pods into v5.14 branch
(perlboot, perlbot, perltooc and perltoot are deleted at Perl v5.16)
