Hi, while packaging an update for this perl module for NetBSD's pkgsrc, I found that your CPAN distribution does not appear to contain a change log. Surely, that must be an oversight? I hope you can add it to your distribution. Best regards, - Håvard
no it is not

You mean it's a concious decision, not an oversight that your package doesn't contain a change log, summarizing what's changed in each version of your package? That seems ... suboptimal... and makes your packge deviate from what appears to be the norm. Is there any way to convince you to do the extra work of publishing a change log? Best regards, - Håvard
Version 2.016 includes a Changes file, and I've pieced together as much as I could from previous versions using the CVS commit log messages.
