Switching over to some "new shiny".

[csjewell]

Apparently Dist::Zilla is the "new shiny" for creating and releasing distributions... and I got a "WHAT? You're still using Module::Starter???" question... so I'm creating a Dist::Zilla::BeLike::CSJEWELL for myself (and anybody else that wants to use it) that includes both a profile for creating a new distribution (I got the idea from http://www.dagolden.com/index.php/955/creating-new-distributions-with-distzilla/ ), a PluginBundle, and a few Plugins, as well as a few other things to support those 3 things.

The repository is at http://bitbucket.org/csjewell/dist-zilla-belike-csjewell - it's still a work in progress. The creation half is pretty much done, the release half is not. (I still need to get an "upload to my own non-cpan web site" plugin done, and a "commit tarball to svn directory" plugin done, as well.)

WHAT?

You're still using BitBucket? ;-)

Re: WHAT?

Well, if somebody could name a better free Mercurial repository hosting site, I might use it. (I can't afford a VPS at the moment, but when I do, bitbucket.org will become a backup, and I'll move most of my source code to the VPS.)

And no, I am NOT changing to git. I like git, don't get me wrong - I'd use it if my dev machine was anything but Windows. (I think msysgit is like pulling teeth without anesthesia - something to do in very limited situations only.)
