You can't make someone do what they don't want to do.
Really??? Can you fly without passport? Can you release a USB product without certification? etc ... There is a diffrence between not wanting to do something and being _unable_ to do something. CPAN is a great idea and I am not blazé enough to accept the that it is sometimes used as a garbage can. I'll try to wrap up what we (all) have discussed and see if there is something that can be done. Cheers, Nadim.
