One week ago there were some cpantesters/metacpan problems of which I 
was aware of only a small part.  Paul Evans reported having released 
Socket-2.040 to CPAN, but for several hours 
https://metacpan.org/pod/Socket did not update.  @haarg reported on IRC 
that several services had stopped and that he had re-started them.

I eventually downloaded a tarball from 
https://www.cpan.org/authors/id/P/PE/PEVANS/Socket-2.040.tar.gz and 
generated CPANtesters reports for that version on Linux and FreeBSD. 
The terminal output indicated that the reports had been received, but 
repeated refreshes of https://metabase.cpantesters.org/tail/log.txt 
indicated that my reports had not been processed.  Similarly, the 
usually reliable http://fast-matrix.cpantesters.org/?dist=Socket 
remained stuck at Socket 2.039, though the usually less reliable 
http://matrix.cpantesters.org/?dist=Socket was showing 2.040 results, 
albeit with "Reusing old cached file."

Seven days later, http://fast-matrix.cpantesters.org/?dist=Socket 
remains stuck at 2.039 but also displays the advisory "NOTE: no report 
for latest version 2.040".  I don't know whether this applies to reports 
for other CPAN distributions.

So my impression is that our recovery from the problems of July 15 is 
incomplete.  Could these be investigated?  Thank you very much.
