in reply to Where should I publish my script?

I'd say sourceforge, it's like using cvs (you'll learn :-) ), and the right people will find it.
Use Cpan as well, a module like Image::Magick (more then a module) is to be found there as well.

    Sourceforge is increasingly being socially deprecated. OpenFoundry is excellent, however. They use svn instead of cvs, don't have the annoying intermediate download pages, are hosted outside of the Americas, and more. 

    $h=$ENV{HOME};my@q=split/\n\n/,`cat $h/.quotes`;$s="$h/."
."signature";$t=`cat $s`;print$t,"\n",$q[rand($#q)],"\n";

      I had a look at OpenFoundary and too many of the pages have unprintable characters. Whilst I support the idea of spreading software development outside of the USA (I am an Australian myself) it is important for a web page interface to be clean and if that means reviewing the presentation for English-language speakers then so be it.

      As for the location of hosting, I would be more comfortable with a site that was mirrored across continents..

        Er, I don't see any unprintable characters, lot's of non-Latin ones but nothing unprintable. Are you suggesting that the site is unsuitable because some of the users choose not use English?

      Other possibilities include Savannah, Novell Forge and a few others Listed here which may be more or less suitable due to licensing and/or distribution constraints.
