Re: Re: CPAN has a (beta) rating system

I was wondering what this will do to the "Module Reviews" section on Perl Monks. There aren't too many people writing reviews to begin with ;-(

I just tried cross-posting my cpan-upload review, but that just looks afwul. So no easy cross-posting between Perl Monks Module Reviews and CPAN (well, search.cpan.org actually).

Update:
Found the "edit" button, so made the thing a more bearable by removing all of the fancy stuff.

Eeek, visible HTML markup. :) Given the mass of tradeoffs, I can understand the perl.org developers' decision to stick with plain text for the reviews, although its limitations can be frustrating. If you want to cross-post, copying the rendered text from your browser and pasting it in to the text area will at least give you a minimally readable format...	[reply]
