Hello,

I have stopped to submit scripts to the scripts section in CPAN, simpy 
because I think it is not functioning well. I think we should do 
something about it? We should get the versioning stuff working because 
it is not optimal, which brings me to another issue.

 From (http://www.cpan.org/scripts/submitting.html)
"It must be a single file, not compressed or archived. This  constraint 
will be relaxed in the future."

We need to be able to submit compressed/archived files aswell - in my 
opinion the scripts part should look asmuch as the module part as 
possible - so you version inside your script and in your compressed 
image, so that script names are kept simple - what do you think?

I can offer keyboard time to address the above
