It seems the communication between the perl porters and CPAN module
authors on one side and the distributors of these packages on the other
is, well, lacking. To slightly improve the situation I talked a bit with
the Perl packagers of Debian and Fedora that resulted in a wish list from
their part. I have posted it on the Perl 5 wiki under [0]CPAN packaging
I also started to create a list of the other perl and CPAN distributors
so it will be easier to ask them as well.
I need your help to create a comprehensive list of these, so if you know
who is responsible for the native perl and/or CPAN packages in your
favorite operating system, please post it under [1]Distributions

Stockholm.pm has announced the preliminary dates of the 6th. Nordic Perl
Workshop.
The dates are the 24-25th. of May 2008
I am so happy our NPW-ball just keep rolling, if we just could get
Finland and Iceland to get involved it would be perfect - I have never
visited these countries and I would love to have an excuse to go.
But for now I am looking forward to the 2008 NPW in Stockholm.

| Module::Install 0.69 - The Deprecation Release |

When I took over maintainership of Module::Install, my goal was to take
the magic functionality created by others and add a level of reliability
to it so that it could be used safely.
I've fixed various features, tried to improve some of the magic to work
better, and generally puttered around writing docs and bug fixing.
After several years of this, and looking at the direction that the future
of the CPAN toolchain is heading in (and having learned many lessons from
this whole process) I think I'm confident enough now to draw a line
through some parts of M:I, judge them as fundamentally flawed, and remove
the functionality.
