Yep, search.cpan.org shows 1.08. But I've tried the cpan shell on Max OS X, and it only gets 1.05 from my region's mirrors, and my Linux box gets 1.05 from the www.perl.org repository
Comment on Re^6: A data structure for XML generation
It's related to this node: Fix CPAN uploads for world writable files. I did not notice the upload failed to be "indexed". Because of some clever "security" update on CPAN implemented by someone who only ever thinks of Unix.
I'll release 1.09 and hope I do it so that they like it.
Update: I released 1.08.1 and it seems to be available via CPAN and PPM now.
Jenda Enoch was right!
Enjoy the last years of Rome.
