Re: [RFS] several Perl packages, plus more

[Carlo Segre <segre@iit.edu>]

Hi Zak:

Given the significant number of perl packages that you are adopting, would 
you consider putting them in the Debian Perl repository and joining the 
group.  Generally once the packages are in there it is easy to get them 
uploaded by DD members of the group.

All it takes is getting an account on alioth and asking for access to the 
pkg-perl repository.

Cheers,

Carlo
