CPAN is getting too big

[Johan Vromans <jvromans@squirrel.nl>]

This message is intended for CPAN people.

As you may have noticed, the amount of information on CPAN now exceeds
the 650Mb that fits on a CD-ROM. Since people (like publishers)
occasionally make CPAN snapshots on CD, we need a way to either split
or ignore some of the contents.

Before re-inventing wheels, what do you think?
