CPAN-Forum

Ovid on 2005-02-02T17:13:09

Gabor Szabo has opened the CPAN Forum. It's a centralized place to discuss CPAN modules. It is not for genenal Perl discussion. I've added HTML::TokeParser::Simple because it's my most-used module and AI::Prolog because I would like it to become my most-used module.



CPAN Forum is new and is definitely alpha, but Gabor welcomes comments and feature requests there. Hopefully this will be useful.

I hate when websites ask me for "4 characters minimum" nicknames :-(

added ?

Actually there is no need to add your modules. They should be included automatically by the populate script. (Lemme know if something is missing). Anyway it is a good idea to put in an opening message like you did so people will feel more comfortable writing in that area.

Adding your module seems to be the easiest way of getting emailed every time someone adds something to the thread though, thus allowing authors not to have to monitor the forum.

Thank you in any case for this feature, which is probably the only way I will add cpanforum to the already long list of places where people can potentially ask questions about my module (perl-xml mailing list, usenet, perlmonks...).
