No doubt. This looks like definate Handy dandy CPAN pollution to me.

Does your hypocrisy have no limits? To quote yourself:

Clearly he doesn't understand CPAN.

Anyhow, I don't care. Mess CPAN up all you like.

    Yes, this is pollution. Every April fool's joke is unclean in one way or another. For some reason, if you say it is a joke (Like "This is an April fool's joke" in the Gentoo newsletter or a module in the Acme:: namespace), it is no longer funny.

    Anyway, Filter::Microsoft is not here to stay. CPAN should be a clean place, 364 days a year :)

      Yeah, but they're never funny in the first place. Just look at slashdot.
