Rakudo and CPAN
- Rakudo Star does not have the ability to directly use CPAN
- We are not abandoning CPAN
- We aren't yet far enough along for (Perl 5) CPAN integration
- We are working on library management packages for Perl 6
- proto - early prototype, being phased out
- pls - replacement for 'proto' ("PLS library system")
pls install <package>
- distributed repositories and mirrors
- allow multiple transports
- authentication/signing
- request specific module versions
