Because you want Catalyst to succeed, and be as intuitive as possible for new 
users?

I detect (from the tone of your recent posts to the list) that you really want 
to "hurt" Catalyst and Perl, and you're hanging on to the one piece of 
leverage you have.  I suppose that's fine, but maybe you should add an 
AnnoCPAN annotation to your old modules along the lines of "this is not here 
for you to download, it's so I can feel good about myself" or something.  
That way it would be clear to new users that haven't had to deal with the 
exciting Catalyst politics yet.

Actually, it would be more constructive to funnel your hatered into 
contributing to some competetor of Catalyst, rather than just being an ass on 
CPAN and the mailing list.
