I have a few *.pm files located in my t/data/ directory. These are actual Perl module files that happen to be part of the dataset which is parsed during testing. Some of the modules are from another CPAN distro, some are not released.

I'm gonna assume they will be visible on search.cpan.org because IIRC, that's how the search engine works, and this is my problem because I'd rather not pollute the search results.

Maybe this isn't that big a problem, but OTOH maybe someone have encountered this before.

Any thoughts on how to handle this? Ignore it? Change exension? Move them somewhere?
