Help CPAN Testers During meta::hack v2
Would you like to help CPAN Testers during meta::hack v2? Join us on IRC in #cpantesters-discuss on irc.perl.org, join our mailing list on lists.perl.org, or e-mail me directly at doug@preaction.me.
With meta::hack v2 only two weeks away, I’ve written down my todo list for the hackathon. With another brand-new machine graciously provided by ByteMark, who have been hosting CPAN Testers for years, this year’s hackathon will involve more devops tasks to improve reliability and stability of the various parts of the project.
The new server will be the host for CPAN Testers backend processes, the processes that turn the raw incoming data into the various reports used by the websites and downstream systems. It will also be the new home for the CPAN and BackPAN mirrors that CPAN Testers uses for data, and provides to external users as part of CPAN’s mirrors list.
