It's not a simple matter of uploading it to CPAN. Krang handles it's own 
dependencies including Apache and mod_perl and bundles/builds it all 
together. It would take a lot of work to make it work as a normal CPAN 
distribution and probably not worth it since you still can't specify 
exact module version requirements for CPAN installs.

It isn't in fashion anymore, but it was still used when Smolder was 
started and I haven't felt the need to change that since it works just fine.

It'll probably sit there for a while. Smolder's never been run on a 
windows machine and I don't have one (nor the inclination really) to 
help out with that. Patches would be welcome though as long as someone 
else is willing to maintain them.
