[0]CPANdeps now cares about what version of perl you're running. It lets
you restrict test results to just the specified version, or look at all
versions.

It also now uses [1]Parse::CPAN::Packages instead of CPAN.pm to figure
out what distribution each module lives in. That means that I now no
longer have the huge startup time of CPAN.pm to worry about, so can drop
mod_perl. Phew!

[0]Fosdem, a major open source event, will be held in Brussels on 23-24
february 2008. Fosdem is known to be a major open source event with key
people like Richard M Stallman and Jim Gettys. The conference is build
around multiple interest "developers rooms" (There used to be a Python
dev room for example)

The "developers room" assignment procedure starts with a call for
interest and the organizers ask to send a request form before 26 November
2007. Before actually submitting the request I'd like to poll the Perl
Community. Interested speakers and attendees: please send me a private
mail mentioning your interest !
