Perl Distribution

[George Kinley]

My question is not related to perl programing but about its distribution so
pardon me
Modules downlodable from CPAN site are not part of standard distribution
package (like Date::Calc),
how do they decide which module to be added as standard distribution , and
what are the criteria
