I just fielded a question addressed to [EMAIL PROTECTED] asking about "10 essential Perl modules every programmer should know about".

In the reply, I mentioned in passing the Phalanx 100

  http://qa.perl.org/phalanx/100/

I took another look at it, and noticed that in the time since it was published, I have since become the maintainer of Crypt-SSLeay. The page links to the current-at-the-time author directory (CHAMAS).

My version is 0.57, but the version in Joshua's directory is 0.51 (which cannot even be built with current OpenSSL libraries).

I imagine that there are other modules in the same boat. Perhaps a better solution is to avoid the ego points, drop the author link, and just point to http://search.cpan.org/dist/Crypt-SSLeay/ instead.
