I am forwarding this to the list on behalf of Matt Turner whose messages over the past month or two have not reached the list. I will also point out that Digest::MD5 is a dual-life core module and very high upriver and so based on Gisle's response it would be prudent to allow P5P to maintain this module as necessary.

Sorry. So I guess the answer is that I don’t maintain it any more. —Gisle —Gisle On Wed, Sep 11, 2019 at 2:15 AM +0200, "Matt Turner" <matts...@gmail.com<mailto:matts...@gmail.com>> wrote: On Mon, Sep 9, 2019 at 2:19 PM Matt Turner wrote: > > Hi Gisle, > > Trying a different address this time! > > On Mon, Sep 9, 2019 at 1:31 PM Matt Turner wrote: > > > > Hi Gisle, > > > > I'm curious to know if you're still maintaining Digest-MD5? > > > > I submitted a pull request [0] that's required to solve a couple of > > upstream Perl bugs [1] and [2].
