Any other puppet using perl developers out there frustrated by the lack of a native cpanm provider for package resources in puppet?

I just ordered "Puppet Types and Providers". Should be here in two weeks. I'm thinking it would be nice to contribute back a new provider to the puppet code base to serve our needs as perl developers and as sysadmins who have to manage perl code bases.

I just created a project work space for such work at:

https://github.com/hesco/cpanm-puppet-provider

I'll try later today to outline my thoughts on the user interface and the features I imagine this puppet provider making available in the README in that repo.

I would love to collaborate with others on such a project. If interested, please clone the repo and send me your pull requests, drop me a line at: hesco@campaignfoundations.com or call me at x21 at the phone number published in the footer of that domain.

Thanks.
