Subject: CPAN-like repository for configuration recipes
Message-Id: <877h12otto.fsf@lifelogs.com>
I'd like to start a CPAN-like repository for configuration recipes. I
looked at the CPAN code, JSAN, CKAN, CPAN::Mini, and Pinto; none seem to
be exactly what I want. I'm not afraid of writing code but would like
to avoid reinventing the wheel. A wiki is not enough, I want to be able
to test submissions and to do ratings. I'd like to have something like
PAUSE to handle uploads. The search engine part is not a big deal.
It doesn't have to be in Perl but it would be nice. Any suggestions?
Thanks
Ted

I think you came up with a rather idiotic supposition based on your
somewhat lacking 'reading comprehension' skills, your desire to attack
me in any case and your complete inability (or unwillingness) to come
up with something like a rational counterargument.
I suggest that you consider discussing the issue with an interested
parking meter.

I wasn't refering to you. I just pointed out that this was sort-of a
weird justifcation for 'authority'.

"You should not do this" is no useful information: That's the way how
parents deal with their children and even there, it is IMHO more often
than not completely inappropriate. In my opinion, programming is (or
should rather be) a science and not an art and in particular, it
shouldn't be considered 'some kind of weird magic' where arcance and
not understood statements are muttered in order to achieve an effect
in a way no one understands because they're part of the ancient lore
which came to us from our so much more wise ancestors. This implies
that, if you publish an opinion on a topic I consider to be relevant,
I'm very likely going to ask for the reasoning behind it and will
usually criticize that if it seems lacking to me (which may very well
be my own fault, but I can't understand why I'm at fault by blindly
accepting someone else's opinion should because it is his opinion).
