Based on conversation on Slack, it looks like there is a network issue with CPAN. The symptom is that none of the new uploads are appearing.
The Perl NOC has been contacted. More to come.

See also CPAN widget not updating (list stale at MetaCPAN too).

Also, see MetaCPAN as a mirror for a workaround.

The symptom is that none of the new uploads are appearing.
It also (apparently) stopped me from receiving "All Activity" notifications from github repos.
I had configured github to email those notifications to my cpan.org address and they stopped arriving 3 or 4 days ago.
Earlier today I altered that email setting on github to instead specify my gmail.com address, and email notifications started arriving shortly thereafter.
No sign of the missed notifications, of course - but that's not important.
Update: Aristotle Pagaltzis has subsequently raised the possibility that I might instead have simply been hit (belatedly) by:
https://log.perl.org/2024/02/cpanorg-email-deliverability-issues.html
I don't know ... to me, that seems a bit too coincidental, but I can't rule it out.
Cheers,

Update 1254, October 8, 1254: It looks like there is a temporary solution in place, thanks to Olaf and Haarg. There are updates on the MetaCPAN site.

Update on October 12, 1249: Todd R reports that the rsync server should be back online:
There were a few different things going on with cpan-rsync.perl.org, but things should be working with it as of last night.
We are still gluing some of the pieces back together. Many of them had been running untouched since 2010, and this has been an opportunity to make some long needed improvements.
Thanks to everyone who helped out with this issue!
