Yes, if you login to PAUSE, then select Delete Files from the sidebar. You'll get a list of all your files, each with a checkbox against it. Tick the ones to delete then hit the Delete button at the bottom. This schedules them for deletion 72 hours from that point, and you get an email from PAUSE. > And: would this be a bad idea in some notable way? If they're releases of dists that have more recent releases on CPAN, then it's not a bad idea in any way. As you say, they're on BackPAN anyway. It can actually be a very good thing, in the case where later versions have changed module names. Ask me offline if you're interested, but I suspect that you're not :-) Cheers, Neil
