When the discussion about bringing Ruby into CPAN began, was there any agreement
or suggestion that all CPAN mirrors would automatically mirror non-Perl code as
well?  Or, conversely, if someone wanted to be a Ruby CPAN mirror, could the
Perl code be omitted?

I can see how having to buy into an all-or-nothing arrangement could be a
problem.
