"I think that CPAN itself should send a confirmatory e-mail to EVERY module author with a code and if that author does not type in that code in some screen the module should AUTOMATICALLY be pushed to some back archive, effectively de-listing it from CPAN."

A valid email is required to setup a PAUSE account, your proposed solution doesn't seem workable to me. The address may be valid at the point of your proposed challenge, this of course may not remain true in perpetuity. I also don't agree with automated desisting of modules for this reason.

  • Posts are HTML formatted. Put <p> </p> tags around your paragraphs. Put <code> </code> tags around your code and data!
  • Titles consisting of a single word are discouraged, and in most cases are disallowed outright.
  • Read Where should I post X? if you're not absolutely sure you're posting in the right place.
  • Please read these before you post! —
