With the next upcoming perl-5.14 cygwin release early next year
we will move most vendor modules into extra packages.

New CPAN::Reporter initialization
---------------------------------
  $ metabase-profile
   Enter full name: John Doe
   Enter email address: jdoe AT example DOT com
   Enter password/secret: zqxjkh
   Writing profile to 'metabase_id.json'

   $ mkdir ~/.cpanreporter
   $ cp metabase_id.json ~/.cpanreporter/
   $ chmod 400 ~/.cpanreporter/metabase_id.json
   $ vi ~/.cpanreporter/config.ini

   email_from = John Doe <jdoe AT example DOT com>
   transport = Metabase uri https://metabase.cpantesters.org/api/v1/ 
id_file ~/.cpanreporter/metabase_id.json

Update recommendations from 5.8:
-------------------------------

Since 5.10 is not installed in parallel to 5.8 (it is possible, but not
with this package), all your old 5.8 modules will need to be reinstalled
for 5.10.
Your old 5.8 modules are not deleted, just not accessible to 5.10.
Non-binary packages can be used by adding /usr/lib/perl5/site_lib/5.8 to
your @INC, but the below procedure is recommended to get the latest
version for each installed package.
This will not harm most of your previous 5.8 modules in case you want to
switch back to 5.8, just the /bin scripts might get overwritten.

BEFORE INSTALLATION of 5.10 !
# get the list of installed 5.8 modules
$ perl -MExtUtils::Installed \
   -e'print join("\n", new ExtUtils::Installed->modules)' > module.list

AFTER INSTALLATION of 5.10 !
# install all previous modules for 5.10
$ cpan `cat module.list`
