From:	CHORNY [...] cpan.org
Subject:	META.yml/json should be present

CPAN distributions should contain files META.yml or META.json. They are generated by your build tool when creating distribution. Build tool for RSAVAGE/WWW-Scraper-Wikipedia-ISO3166-1.04.tgz was detected as Module::Install. Please upgrade it and ExtUtils::MakeMaker to latest version. You can create your distribution with these files using `make dist` (dmake on Windows). If it did not help, create inc/.author directory, add META.yml to MANIFEST and do it again P.S. If this report is for an old version, please delete old indexed versions mentioned here: http://cpanold.chorny.net/?a=RSAVAGE and contact me. P.P.S. This report was generated automatically.

I may soon delete this module from CPAN, having been informed of a more suitable source of the info. Whatever happens, I have not forgotten your ticket. Thanx!

I've started a new module to replace this one. It's data is coming from a Debian project, but there are a huge number of differences, so I'm thinking I might use data from this module (assuming Wikipedia is up-to-date) to provide a pull to github re the Debian one. Then, I'll issue an update of the Wikipedia scraper deprecating it, and about a year from now I'll delete it from CPAN.
