CPAN cleaning
After reading bdfoys journal entry on the growth of CPAN and the need for cleanup, I went to PAUSE and deleted a lot of my old uploads - it not much but hopefully other module authors will do the same.

Intersting point but the definition of old version is a bit vague
In the comments on bdfoy's journal the argument was that it is a good idea to keep at least one old version for the use of the search.cpan.org tools eg. diff.
But I think you point raises a different problem - and without knowing I guess BACKPAN is the solution.
Is FreeBSD ports based on CPAN mirrors? if so could BACKPAN be added as a last resort mirror?
