I'm not sure about that. We were talking about what things to include in
CPAN-the-network (the new hypothetical p2p one where mirrors can choose
what they want to mirror). I say that we could possibly permit compiled
Perl module binaries or Ruby modules that run on Parrot. Mark says "why
stop there? why not share holiday pictures?".

It is not just 5 words to skip if those 5 words are the main point of
