There is -- it's just
Hi David:
Thanks for your reply. Conveniently, I already have access to Adam's repository.
However, it appears that the module author is Matt Sergeant - not Adam
- so I don't know if he has access to upload modules yet (or they will
be flagged as unauthorized). So hopefully he is given comaintain

Hi all:
I write because one of the modules I use in one of my distributions,
DBD::SQLite, seems to be abandoned by its maintainer. I am wondering
what should be done in such a case, because the backlog of requests in
the RT is getting pretty big, and there are some outstanding patches
in the downs

I sent mail to the author of HTML::Detoxifier but it bounced. Does anyone
here have any suggestions for XSS-killers in Perl?

Here's how I've done this -- with files living in "/home/david/perl":
* Set PERL5LIB to "/home/davi

It does appear to have an issue with not detecting ambiguous
abbreviations.
my %hash = abbrev(qw(dog door
I'm building a "tech stack" - that is, downloading CPAN modules and
installing them in a new directory, not the one that Perl lives in. Until
now, all the modules I build are MakeMaker-based, but I've just started
adding a new Module::Build-based module (Net::OAuth, in case you're curious)

if you ask what's wrong, that's the POD. the name is set to 'abbrev', it
sort of even breaks search.cpan.org. I guess many don't know about the
module for this reason :-)
cheers,
