From a web point of view it would be nice if we could get the products and
information in a more flexible format. Maybe an rdf or other xml file of the
products. Then it would be a simple matter to write something that parses
that...

I think you also we need to separate CPAN functionality from PPM. PPM is the
bit that downloads and installs the files locally.
