Since I moved to SVN, one of the things I've been doing is commiting
my release tarballs into a /releases/ directory.
One side-effect of this is that even before I've uploaded it to CPAN,
ever release already has a URI.
I was doing that for a while, until I had to rebuild my svn repository
due to disk corruption. Now, I just scp them to a directory on the
webserver to get the uri thing, and I use a hacked version of
cpan-upload[1]. I figure if I can't do ./Build dist from the tag, it
was a bad release. Anyway, this cpan-upload will work either way as
long as your tarball is on http.

I've been using a Firefox bookmark to upload.
I just type in "release $uri" and it uploads using the PAUSE URI form.
