In a culture where you give credit to someone who has an idea for a 
module and doesn't actually write it, I find it suspect that nowhere in 
any of the documents you have written do you bother to cite the Perl 
Timeline which it is very likely you and many others have used but 
never bothered to credit. Skud also has this problem sometimes.

And you still haven't removed the offending 'CPAN cabal' phrase in part 
I. Maybe I should just make t-shirts for us with the 'TheCabal' to 
match the rest of the 'The' people. I do have the internal list email 
exchange which might also change the nice fiction of 'TheDamian' 
'placating' 'the CPAN cabal'.
