I read why you wouldn't put those modules on CPAN, but I don't understand what you think the problem is. Is there some problem I'm missing?
What would you like to have happen? Should those modules be removed from CPAN, perhaps by force?

It is the Comprehensive Perl Archive Network.
And the CPAN FAQ says:
What is CPAN?
CPAN is the Comprehensive Perl Archive Network, a large collection of Perl software and documentation. You can begin exploring from either http://www.cpan.org/ [cpan.org], http://www.perl.com/CPAN/ [perl.com] or any of the mirrors listed at http://www.cpan.org/SITES.html [cpan.org].
http://cpan.org/misc/cpan-faq.html#What_is_CPAN [cpan.org]
So if a blog posting is documenting something maybe it should go on CPAN.

On the other hand, Perl6::Cookbook doesn't actually install code.
That's a bug. When fixed it will install the examples written in Perl 6 :-)
