I already knew that she had that opinion. I thought that you were referring to something else when you brought it up. Perhaps you can explain how her thinking that people shouldn't bitch and moan about CPAN translates into thinking that tons of the code that appears here should go onto CPAN?

Do you really think that PerlMonks is taking anything away from CPAN? I don't. I see CPAN constantly recommended here. I see explicit instructions given for how to install things from CPAN. I see people being encouraged to get involved with CPAN. I see people getting feedback on things that are going into CPAN, feedback which improves the quality of that code.

In reply to Re (tilly) 2: this place should define a relation to CPAN soon by tilly

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
