Yep, that's correct. I still remember when I registered the name. It has grown far beyond anything I had imagined.
The whole CPAN ecosystem (CPAN, CPAN Testers, search.cpan.org, metacpan.org etc) involves a lot of people and a lot of resources. It's not just open source software -- it's open source "software as a service". So you get to push some code and also worry about uptime!
Lots of volunteers and more than a few sponsors make sure the ecosystem keeps on ticking. My thanks to all of them. :)
