in thread Mirroring CPAN by inclusion declaration rather than by exclusion

That's a good suggestion, thanks. The one detail that makes a difference lies in whether you know all the modules you are interested in, in advance. Using my way creates a nice minimini-cpan of all ExtUtils:: even ones I did not know existed. I can now use perldoc and peruse them at my leisure.

    Is there a reason not to use the MetaCPAN website for this?

      No, no good reason. Metacpan is a great resource and its search capabilities are basically all one would ordinarily want. See my other replies above.
