Just to clear things up – CPAN is NOT shutting down!

The website http://search.cpan.org/ is being *replaced* by 
http://search.mcpan.org/ -  the rest of the cpan subdomains (such as 
pause.cpan.org) are not being touched.

Read https://log.perl.org/2018/05/goodbye-search-dot-cpan-dot-org.html for more 
details

1) Please don’t cross-post between this list and other lists. It’s rude.

2) It’s not “shutting down” so much as it is being replaced by the existing 
MetaCPAN search site. This is positive news about the future of Perl: an older, 
less capable tool has been replaced, and is being shutdown and transitioned to 
its replacement in an orderly fashion. This is what a healthy programming 
language community looks like.

chrs,
john.
