Matt, You're not funny. Please try and be more polite in future. I'm starting to suspect this has little to do with my response to Neil and is instead a personal thing between us. I'll send you a message off-list so we don't have to spam the rest of the world with the issue. :-)

Matt, So I was thinking, why would it complain about a non-existent permissions error if it had no idea what the module name was supposed to be in the first place? It knows the dist name. To upload Date-Easy as a dist name requires perms on Date::Easy. Then the empty provides means it
