If they're releases of dists that have more recent releases on CPAN, then it's
not a bad idea in any way.
Cool.
OK, if anyone objects to me deleting old dists from my CPAN directory
[i.e., of things that belong to other people and who have released
more recent modules of] directory, speak how or forever hold your peace!
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.[...]
That is *very* extremely true, I didn't think of that. And I *think*
there has been some of that. I'll keep a look out for that is I start
my deleting...
