This defininition of abandoned doesn't normally have relevance for a search result unless people have gone in and marked the module as explicitly abandoned beforehand.

Good point. The more meta data the better as far as a search is concerned. -stvn	[reply]

This is a case of metadata that probably wouldn't exist.	[reply]

True, but maybe this could be part of the CPAN-QA effort? Since they are already going around and making fixes/updates/tests/etc it would only be one more step to devise and fill in meta-data. I am sure I am being optimistic here, but hey, its nice to dream. CPAN is perl's killer-app, but that is not to say it can't be improved. I mean just take a look at how M$ Outlook improved virus delivery? Just when you thought you only had to worry about malicious Word Macros, ta-da... Outlook. -stvn	[reply]
