| Yikes. So then the choice is between portscout taking weeks to notice

There is also this page:
https://people.freebsd.org/~mat/perl.html

That's generated by a tool I wrote way back when, and that Anton upgraded a
few times.

It goes and fetch stuff from search.cpan.org.

At the present time, the page's not complete, but that's because the
generation was broken quite some time ago, I just fixed it, and wanted to
show a few entries.
