Hi Rusty,

Please go through the following link
http://spreadsheets.google.com/pub?key=pygQSWUVjOhJYa5QzMWw9UA

I have given some modules and tentative date for completion. Status will
updated as soon some activity is finished. If you want me to add some other
functionality/module please let me know. Please let me know if tentative
dates are ok.

1. I want to create DB for storing developers login information and also
indexes for searching code module. Is MySQL ok? or you will prefer some
other method for storing this informations?

2. For registration i am going to follow same as CPAN/PAUSE giving a page
with required information(like
https://pause.perl.org/pause/query?ACTION=request_id ). So like in CPAN, we
need to create home directory after receiving request for id and also return
a random password.

3. I think we also need to give a page for modifying developers details like
password, email etc.


Thanks,
Dinesh.
