That's a somewhat different question.

I was hoping to gather together some of the links to usenet and the cpan mailing list and things. And, I had hoped to get a response from one of the people that posted to those places as I found that stuff pretty hard to find when this came up on IRC.

I know I've read the stuff all over, but I don't know where it actually is.

UPDATE: Although, there are some interesting comments under there ... Maybe I duped. :(
