This is a pretty good point and has caused me to change my mind.  It
would be nice to put all this stuff in META.yml.  Keeping data in
multiple places consistent is much more painful than uploading to the CPAN.

Anyway, should the DSLIP stuff be added to the META-spec?  (I see that
some stuff, like the S and L parts, are already covered by META.yml.  Is
the rest worth adding, or is it time to forget about it?)

As for "keywords", can I use those for anything?  It would be nice to
replace the manually-generated categories on search.cpan (and other
places) with popular tags.  Maybe that's too "web 2.0y" but I think it
might be nice :)

Jonathan Rockway
