I hope noone minds a zombie

Hi, new questions go in Seekers Of Perl Wisdom, you're replying to anoid who was last here 6 years ago -- Zombies go unnoticed ( see on necromancy (reviving old threads) ).

So where do we stand 9 years after the initial posting of this?

Still on top of the world :) Try super search , esp ?node_id=3989;HIT=Build%20MakeMaker;re=N and site:perlmonks.org makemaker-is-doomed

Will EUMM be marked as deprecated soon?

Nope

Are there plans to start converting distributions?

Nope

Should I start submitting patches for every dist I care about to help the authors migrate to Module::Build?

Nope, lots of authors know what they're doing and why they chose EUMM over MB, so you would earn a reputation as some kind of crusader , and maybe get frustrated

As a side note, Module::Install was unusable to me because it requires EUMM to install.

Seeing how every perl comes with EUMM, "odd" decision
