Subject: CPANPLUS::Dist or CPANPLUS::Dist::Base?
I'm trying to figure out some things about how the CPANPLUS::Dist classes work. I noticed that nothing appears to use CPANPLUS::Dist::Base. Dist::MM subclasses from CPANPLUS::Dist instead. Dist and Dist::Base both claim that they're the base class for dists. Which is it? Dist::Base sees better developed.

Dist::Base is the one to use for third party dist::* developers. I've changed the documentation to reflect this. Thanks for reporting,
