Dear fellows

I was reading the London-PM mailing list today, and stepped over a thread about the newly launched CPANForum. Folks at London-PM don't think this is really a good idea at all, just another source of requests to monitor.

But what called me attention was a post from mr. J. Peterson asking for something (somewhere) to help to discuss CPAN published modules (in the developer|maintainer point-of-view). I gess there is such a place inside the Monastery. Ok, maybe it needs some reformulation, as a RSS feed so authors can be notified about specific posts.

But, except by this, what's wrong with this place? Maybe it should be more specific? Shall we create a "CPAN Module Discussion" section, or somethin'like?

What the Perl Monks think about this?
