in thread CPAN not indexing?

I waited three days before posting here. I posted here because over half the major players in Perl are here at least once a week. I figured I wasn't the first person to notice it, so someone would be able to tell me what had happened.

I don't come here a lot, so apologies for the belated reply. :-)

It's fine to post here, obviously. I was just trying to point out that emailing the maintainers of the thing you think is broken is more likely to get attention.

It's frustrating finding out that something you look after hasn't been working for a minute, an hour a day and doubly so when you find out that other people knew, spent time talking about it but didn't bother to tell you.

true , but :) you know, you can , like, write a self consistency checker :) if new files uploaded (or its a new day), and index is not reindexed (days older), sound alarm :)
