Please help test the latest WWW::Mechanize

Kevin Falcone and I have been working on encoding problems with
Mechanize. As many people as can test the darn thing would be
appreciated.

Also, suggestions on getting rid of the warnings in the test suite
are welcome as well.

Thanks,
xoxo,
Andy
(and Kevin)

I understand that the indexing is not well, but that's why I attached
the link to the directory directly.

Any, could you please post a workaround for this? I need
WWW::Mechanize for a workshop tomorrow.

Many thanks,

You can get WWW::Mechanize from a Debian software archive mirror (.deb's
only):
ftp://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/debian/pool /main/libw/libwww-mechanize-perl/

Andy Lester's testing version can be found here:
ftp://mirrors.ibiblio.org/pub/mirrors/CPAN/authors/id/P/PE/P ETDANCE/WWW-Mechanize-1.29_01.tar.gz

This is probably a more stable version:
ftp://mirrors.ibiblio.org/pub/mirrors/CPAN/authors/id/P/PE/P ETDANCE/WWW-Mechanize-1.24.tar.gz
