Awesome, thanks for testing and for the PPM. I'm quite interested in supporting a 'ppd' action (both for M::B itself and for other modules built using M::B), so at some point I'll want to figure out how to do this properly. How did you create this one? Where's the best place for me to put the PPM tarball? I can certainly upload it to my CPAN directory, should I also see about getting it in the ActiveState repository or something? -Ken |
