I like it (above all because it's easy to implement :-) I'll put it into CPANTS before the next run on saturday night. For a start, I will only check for a file called /changes/i. After the run, we'll see how many percent use it and try to find a regex that matches more dists. BTW, I got an email complaining that CPANTS only accepts 't/' as a valid dir for tests. The author puts his tests into 'tests/'. Do you think it makes sense to look for several different but meanigful locations (like 't','test','tests' or 'Changes', 'ChangeLog', etc). This would be more in the line of TMTOWTDI. -- #!/usr/bin/perl http://domm.zsi.at for(ref bless{},just'another'perl'hacker){s-:+-$"-g&&print$_.$/}
