Hi,
I know Perl is all about diversity but I wonder if requiring a uniform
way of providing version numbers of modules on CPAN would be too much
of restriction on the freedom of module authors?
I think it would make life easier for tool authors (PAUSE/CPAN.pm/CPANPLUS etc)
and downstream distro

No need for apology. You are a volunteer just as the rest of us.

Soon I'll provide a way to connect the username on CPAN::Forum with the
PAUSEID so the tags added by module authors can have a higher weight in
the search results.
So go tag a module today.

Hi,
I would like to create a list of modules that need compilations
as opposed to those that are pure perl
Is checking for a file with .xs .c or .h extension in the distribution
the correct
thing to do? Is there a better way to collect this information or is it alrady
