I'm not hearing any objections or counterproposals, so let's go with
that version.

Agreed on pointing to cpan, but that page is pretty confusing if you're
looking for a non-bleeding-edge version. I suggest linking to

https://cpan.metacpan.org/authors/id/S/SH/SHANCOCK/

which presents a handy directory listing. Or we could just point to

https://cpan.metacpan.org/authors/id/S/SH/SHANCOCK/Perl-Tidy-20170521.tar.gz
