Something to keep in mind is that if you are making your own package
repo for Perl RPMS (or any other type of package), you may want to try
to get them upstream in a repo.  It's not very difficult to become a
Fedora/EPEL maintainer.  I would assume Debian has methods to manage
packages that also include a fairly low barrier to entry.

Part of the drive of the puppet project is to provide re-usable
infrastructure.  An easy way to do that is get packages we all create
into operating system packages repositories, pending good licenses and
such of course.  That way we can all benefit from these packages.  I
know that I have put over 25 packages into EPEL simply because I
needed them at my day job, and decided if I had to maintain the
package once, I may as well do that for everyone else.

I am certainly not saying there shouldn't be a CPAN provider.  But I
really prefer OS packages.
