in thread Efforts to modernize CPAN interface?

I’m trying to gauge where Perl leadership is on this. I don’t know. ... I just want to know what the answer is. Maybe nobody knows. I don’t.

Why not ask them?

    Good question. My answer: 1) They probably have zero interest in fielding questions from random schmucks. 2) I don't know the right person to ask. 3) It could be a sensitive topic no one is willing to talk frankly about; these kinds of things can get highly politicized within a community.

    My hope is there is some high level Monk who knows and might be willing to talk about what they might know about the topic.

    $PM = "Perl Monk's";
    $MCF = "Most Clueless Friar Abbot Bishop Pontiff Deacon Curate Priest";
    $nysus = $PM . ' ' . $MCF;

      From the docs:

      "Software

      Talking to people who maintain & run the service is far more logical than rapid fire questions here.
