Re: PAUSE permissions conflict between "pragmatic" and "Pragmatic"

Are you happy for me to delete your wildproto distribution and drop the associated permissions? Cheers, Neil

Re: PAUSE permissions clash between Load and load modules

Would you be happy to make this change? Please ask if you’ve any questions about this, or would like any help. Cheers, Neil
Re: PAUSE permissions clash between HTML::Template::DEFAULT and HTML::Template::Default
Hi Sam & Michael, >> [resolving conflict between HTML::Template::DEFAULT and >> HTML::Template::Default] >> That’s fine - there's no upside to indexing these inner classes, they're >> entirely internal and don't have a public API. Thanks! > > Great! I just sent a pull request to Michael’s repo for HTML-Template. I also > updated the dist.ini to request that releases include a META.json file as > well as a META.yml. Nothing’s happened with my pull request. I’ve gone ahead and dropped permissions on inner classes HTML::Template::DEFAULT and friends, to resolve the conflict. If you’re happy to give me co-maint, I’ll do a release with my change, but I think it would be better if WONKO did a release :-) Cheers, Neil
Re: PAUSE permissions conflict with module "file"
Hi Chritresh, In August I mailed you: > I’m one of the PAUSE admins. I’m emailing you because I’m working on > resolving conflicts caused by PAUSE now considering package names case > insensitively.

As a result I’d like to propose that we resolve the > conflict by dropping your ownership of the “file” namespace. Furthermore, I’d > suggest that the link_NCBI.* files can be deleted from your CPAN author > directory as well. How would you like to resolve this? Are you happy for the link_NCBI distribution to be deleted from CPAN, and all associated permissions to be dropped? If I don’t hear anything back, I’ll go ahead and drop the permissions, but leave the files in your CPAN author directory. Cheers, Neil
Re: PAUSE permissions clash between "Qt::Base" and "Q::base" [AWIN/Qt::Base & GGARAND/Qt::base]
Hi Ashley & Germain, I emailed you back in June: > I’m emailing you wearing my PAUSE admin hat: I’m working on resolving > conflicts caused by PAUSE now considering package names case insensitively. > This has left us with some situations where two or more people are owners of > namespaces previously considered distinct, and now considered the same. > > Ashley (AWIN) has ownership of Qt::Base, which is on CPAN in > PerlQt-1.04.tar.gz, and Germain (GGARAND) has ownership of Qt::base, which is > on CPAN in PerlQt-3.008.tar.gz. To resolve this conflict, I propose dropping > AWIN’s permissions on the older Qt::Base, and also deleting all of the older > releases of PerlQt from Ashley’s CPAN author directory (there are a number of > older releases of PerlQt appearing in the CPAN index, because various module > names were changed across a number of releases. As a result someone could > (theoretically) accidentally install the wrong version of PerlQt). Are you happy for me to make these changes? Seems like they’re the right thing to do: I don’t think they’ll cause any problems, it will resolve the conflict, and also prevent anyone from accidentally installing an old release. Cheers, Neil
