[Ming-dev] announcement: ming perl extension now on CPAN

[peterdd <mi...@li...>]

The perl extension is now on CPAN. 

See

http://search.cpan.org/search?query=SWF&mode=module

Now more people will know about ming. :-)

It is a very first try. Some things need still to be cleaned up, I know.

I named that release 0.4.0-beta6_1 (_1 means developer test release 
numbering), so when beta6 of ming is released I will set version to 
0.4.0-beta6 (or what the name of next release will be)

This release contains currently only the perl-ext part, not the ming c 
sources.

For getting test feedbacks from the diverse perl community I think that the 
ming c source must be released finally there too, so that automatic test 
build engines/bots (search a dist, download dist, test, report back) can 
test.
An example of a perl module on cpan that contains c-sources too is 
DBD::SQLite, but the c-sources are only a few c-files in base directory.
