AFAIK all the various CPAN searchy things base their results on: * POD text; * the index files generated by PAUSE I don't think that there is any public index of which distributions or modules have been put "up for grabs" by their maintainers - or indeed any public index at all of who is a maint or co-maint on stuff. -- David Cantrell | Minister for Arbitrary Justice You may now start misinterpreting what I just wrote, and attacking that misinterpretation.
