CPAN6

CPAN6 is a follow-up study for CPAN, Perl5's module archive, as a way to distribute released material. There is no commitment to introduce this design as way to distribute Perl5, Perl6 or Parrot material in the future: first the implementation will get evaluated.

The main differences between CPAN and CPAN6 are:

it creates any amount of archives and helps you maintain them, where CPAN is only one archive,
it is not limited to perl5 use—it can be used for any collection of data, software or even pictures or documents
it adds trust in publisher and security during transport, and
it keeps track on license and copyright issues.

Other notable CPAN6 features:

CPAN6 allows games with archives: automatic mirror discovery, sub-setting (like CPAN-mini), searching
release under embargo
powerful archive administration rules
It can be used to simplify the administrative tasks of ftp-server maintainers.
It can be used to organize internal distribution for companies and other organization.

Status

CPAN6 was launched during YAPC::EU 2006, and shown at YAPC::EU 2007.
CPAN6 components are getting released,

XML::Compile, and strict XML-Schema processor
XML::Compile::SOAP, a SOAP::Lite replacement
XML::Compile::SOAP::Daemon, a SOAP server
Log::Report, combining translations with an exception mechamism
Log::Report::View

CPAN6 specific modules are not released yet, but a lot of progress has been made.
