distribution via tmtm.com represents a single point of failure as well as
a choke point. The CPAN system not only provides configuration
management/reporting but a distribution system with numerous (in excess of
50 for North America alone) mirrors.

I really do not see the big deal about a CPAN upload. There are tools to 
do it from the command line if you don't want to log in to PAUSE via your 
browser.

In addition, the CPAN community have undertaken an attempt at providing 
quality assurance: the CPANsmoke system. Its by no means perfect but it 
can provide ready feedback on how your code works on various platforms to 
which you don't have ready access. There are definitely issues -- support 
for anything that uses Module::Build instead of Makefile.PL was one I ran 
into but it can be useful.

The question is one of your goal. If you simply do CDBI for your own work 
and make it available as a courtesy to the community, that's a thing.
If you are interested in making it widely available the CPAN is an 
effective means of publicizing your work.
