[DBIx-Class-Devel] Extensively customised test-matrix active on master, smoke/* and topic/* branches

[fREW Schmidt]

Oh, and regarding

  # FIXME - not yet implemented - not sure how to reliably
  # feed to wget this location:
http://cpansearch.perl.org/src/GETTY/DBIx-Class-0.08204/inc/

I think a sensible "best try" would be to use wget as said above (with
a timeout of maybe 30s or something), if that fails fall back to
metacpan, and if THAT fails do what we do now.
