    No No NO NO NO!.

    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!

      lol. Made me laugh.

      And proved my comment above - "O'course, it's hard for me to imagine many people sitting still for a CPAN-enforced behavior like this."

      Apparantly others agree with you, and possibly me too, from the downvoting of my node.

      lol
