I had trouble running the "update_package" command with 
OpenInteract-1.99_06's "oi2_manage."  It kept telling me I wasn't 
providing a valid "package_dir."  I traced the error to 
"OpenInteract2::Manage::Website::UpdatePackageFromWebsite."  It was 
looking for the file "package.conf" in the "package_dir," but only 
"package.ini" exists.  Here's a diff:

$ diff -cu UpdatePackageFromWebsite.pm UpdatePackageFromWebsite.orig

          }
          my $changelog = catfile( $param_value, 'Changes' );
-        my $package_conf = catfile( $param_value, 'package.ini' );
+        my $package_conf = catfile( $param_value, 'package.conf' );
          unless ( -f $changelog && -f $package_conf ) {
              return "Does not appear to be a valid package directory";
          }

And now it works.  Schweet!

BTW, if I'm really trying to get going with OI2, should I be using the 
"developer" version of 1.99 or should I downgrade to the 1.62 version?  
If I should be bleeding-edge, should I be working with the CVS version 
or stick to the CPAN developer release?
