Re:What’s so great about CPAN anyway? by draegtun on Friday February 18, 2011 @05:56AM (#2234998)
Yes i've touched briefly on CPAN vs stdlib approach before (http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2088040). They're just different approaches and neither is better or worse than the other.

BTW... I believe all language repos will have darwinism acting upon it. I see it in Ruby & Python as well as on CPAN. Its Perl philosophy and CPAN size that just stirs the pot a bit more!
