} I figure just one link to the most recent available download is sufficient.
} Maybe it isn't.  I am willing to entertain discussion.

One link probably is fine, so long as it can be made clear that
"what's available for MacPerl at the moment isn't a port of the latest
version".  Since you insist on using new fangled lynx unfriendly
tables :-), maybe make it a little more lynx unfriendly and use color
coded text or something to indicate "this isn't the latest yet"?
Maybe even an icon :-) ?

} 
} I did have another thought as I looked at the site.  I am thinking about
} not linking directly to the distribution, but just linking to cpan.perl.com
} as we do now, which links to the most recent distribution.  And then adding
} another link to CPAN Testers.  Problem with CPAN Testers is that we go by
} distribution there, where on MMP and cpan.perl.com we go by module name.
} So maybe the slot now that contains link to the distribution could be
} instead the distribution name, which would make it easy to link to CPAN
} Testers.

Module name isn't always a good idea, anyway.  For example, libnet,
Mailtools, etc.

} 
} Why link to CPAN Testers at all?  Because we can.  More interoperability.

Sounds good to me.
