For one, it's completely stupid. I download a bunch of modules to try them out, then delete 80%++ of them once I find the one I want. Do I have to register and reply back for all 10 modules I might d/l?

What about the fact that I might be at work? Should I have a work email and a home email and an on-the-road email (for my laptop)? That's three times the usage.

For crying out loud, leave CPAN alone!
