Actually you don't need to wait CPAN to rebuild your pages to have the tool enabled. Soo to use the diff you just type /tools/ + distribution_name: http://search.cpan.org/tools/Foo-Bar-1.2 Graciliano M. P. "Creativity is the expression of the liberty".	[reply]

Wow, I'm impressed. Just one remark: I feel as if the `diff` works opposite to what I'd expect. I expect the latest release to be the top dropdown box, and the older one the one underneath, but it's exactly the other way. I'm quite sure I won't be the only one to expect it the other way around. Even if you disagree... Perhaps, near the top in the output for `diff`, a link to swap the two releases, could be provided?	[reply]

FYI, this code was contributed by samtregar. Looks very useful to me.	[reply]

Yay! I'd meant to publish cpandiff - diff local source against CPAN to CPAN and give it a way to diff between two releases on CPAN but I guess I don't have to now.	[reply]
