I am happy to announce the first live version of CPAN::Forum.

It provides an easy way to follow discussions of specific modules. It might be close to what was discussed here in search.cpan.org comments/discussion

I hope people who are searching for modules will find the Forum a good place to discuss them. For example if you have something to say about CPAN::Forum you can do that in the its own subforum and people intersted in that topic will be notified.

I'd like to thank the Monks who helped me in some of my recent questions here and made it quicker to open the site

Maybe you could add a shortcut to PerlMonks that would lead to the subforums on the CPAN::Forum. The standard way to link to modules there is www.cpanforum.com/dist/Distro-Name
