Request for Comments: Strawberry Perl pre-installe (Score:1)
I'd like SQLite to be in the distribution (and DBI), but if there's something other than a failing fork() test, skip it.
Another thing that would be really nice to have is SSL support via Crypt::SSLeay [cpan.org] out of the box, but I'm not sure if LWP is on your list. Maybe that's more chocolatey. I hope I can give you a "distro-builder" that downloads the "current" OpenSSL binaries (that is, DLL) and puts them in the right place on Windows, so rebuilding the distribution gets less painful.

LWP is part of the upgrades for the toolchain, so adding SSLeay to that is problem a good idea.
