Yes, I can't recall why I had it there.  Probably something having to do 
with CPAN::Mini::Visit::Simple.

As my memory of this improves, I also recall that I had something in the 
.minicpanrc to use this module from CPAN:

CPAN::Mini::LatestDistVersion - Create a CPAN mirror with only the 
latest version of each distribution

Would this do the trick?

class: CPAN::Mini::LatestDistVersion
