I already thought about solutions

Well, here's your chance to apply them. I assume you'll be more than willing to help him fix it right? You wouldn't just blast someone and then walk away when they request assistance, would you?

I'm not trying to cause any conflict,

Read your root post again. If that's not trying to cause conflict (a very bad kind of conflict IMHO) I don't know what is.

anyone can be a saint.

Yes, I think you've proven that.

I'd like strict moderation of CPAN,

Who's going to do that? How will disputes be resolved? What gives one person the right to prevent another from sharing their code in an open forum like CPAN? If people can't be bothered to do QA on a module before using it, they deserve the consequences.

I don't buy the "Gives perl a bad name" argument either. What's next? Trying to prevent them from using established protocols to distribute their code?
