I'd prefer a word rather than a new acronym like CBK.

And I think 'Bundle' is mostly associated with the very lightweight
Bundle::Foo specification files. So, s we're talking about something
actually embeds other distributions, I'd prefer Distro over Bundle.

I think I'd lean more towards Builder (as in fetch and consolidate)
more than Maker , since I'd associate make more with the final
"perl Makefile.PL && make" process, which this isn't involved in.

So CPAN::BundleBuilder. Umm, sounds kind'a snappy.
