    Many thanx to Shawn Laffan for testing this version on Strawberry Perl.

      looks interesting, will have a closer look :)

      Thanks for pointing out the typo. Lets pretend it was just MM-DD-YYYY date formats

    • lichtkind commented on Ideas for the CPAN Meta v3 Specification

      All fine, but what I need most in Metacpan is a navigation by topic/content.

    • lichtkind commented on Ideas for the CPAN Meta v3 Specification

      What a task, I have to take it into my link list. But I saw no topic 'Graphics'. And some sorting flags (by latest release, stars, etc) would be nice.

    • john napiorkowski commented on Ideas for the CPAN Meta v3 Specification

      Seems like a lot of fields, what makes the proposer of this think that open source devs working on their spare time is going to spend precious free hours of this time on some of these things? We can’t even get CPAN authors to digitally sign distributions, which would actually be useful and that been around at least 20 years.

      I would say you have to build a case that devs need to spend the time on this. From a look over a good amount of this is being driven by that EU rule that not all of us are acknowledging as valid. Just on that alone I’m personally dubious.
