Hi David,

I’ve also tried to contact the first-come holder (RKINYON) and the person who 
most recently released (SPROUT), offering to grant you co-maint on their 
behalf. Oftentimes this can prompt a response, as it makes things easy for them.

I know that SPROUT isn’t doing any Perl these days, but hopefully RKINYON will 
give the nod.

If neither of us get a response in a week or two, I’ll give you co-maint, as I 
trust you not to screw it up (it has 75 other CPAN distributions dependent on 
it, and there will be people using it out in the wild as well (including me!)).

Cheers,
Neil
