I think this has a lot of promise.

Are you saying that every time you decide to install a new module, you simply get AS to build a fresh perl distro that includes this module ?
Having to wait over half an hour every time I want to install a new module is not something that I would describe as having much promise.

Or do they just update your existing msi that's still sitting on their server, and then have you download that modified msi (which you can then install over the top) ?
That wouldn't be so bad. It's a bit more wasteful than necessary, but then what isn't wasteful, these days ;-)

Or something else ?

Cheers,
Rob
