Commented on Ideas for the CPAN Meta v3 Specification

If I even automate the transfer of details from https://metacpan.org/recent to Perl.Wiki, then release dates & authorship might be included. Stars...Hmmm. Maybe, but they are quite subjective. And anyway, a recent module which is brilliant would have no stars. Eg:...

  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.
