Re^2: What's your reaction to "Reaction?"

It occurred to me that there ought to be a canonical way of answering questions like this. The two methods that occur to me are as follows:

Look at the reviews on CPAN. The weakness here is that I cannot find a way of asking for modules doing something similar.
Look at the Q&A on perlmonks which does cover some questions of this sort (though in a discursive way).

How easy it would be to build lists of modules for a certain purpose (OO frameworks, CGI framework for example) based upon CPAN review ratings either in CPAN or perlmonks? I suppose one issue is that for most purposes there is a clear winner, but this is not the case for these two examples.

This "lists of modules for certain purpose" idea is being realized at the p5p wiki. Update: There is also Task::Kensho a list of modules maintained by the Enlightened Perl organisation.	[reply]

I feel I should point out that Task::Kensho is not officially endorsed by the EPO. It is certainly appreciated by the board there, and I am a member of the EPO but when I wrote Task::Kensho I was not a member and it only reflects the biases I have garnered from my years as a Perl programmer. The EPO is slowly trying to form a working group to produce an official list to endorse. How accurate Task::Kensho is to that list I have no idea, I suspect it will be pretty close.	[reply]
