Thank you for offering.  I think we're well covered with Karen and Leon.

If you want a third, I could also help maintain this.

I think it would make sense for me to be the backup for Perl-OSType.

I realize what I said wasn't clear.  I consider Leon to be "primary"
maintainer... even if not reflected in the PAUSE permissions.  I had
considered myself his backup, and hope someone else will step up into that
role.

Re: Passing some torches

[David Golden]

I was thinking that we should have a backup to *Leon*, as the other
maintainers aren't very active.

I'll assign co-maint on the ones you asked for when I'm back at a computer.

Re: Passing some torches

[Karen Etheridge]

I believe Leon Timmermans is already established as a maintainer of
Module::Build, so things should be fine there.

Since I'm already a release wrangler on YAML-Tiny, upon which
CPAN-Meta-YAML is based, I'm happy to coordinate its releases as well.  I'm
happy to take on Perl-OSType too since it is indeed quite straightforward
(along with whoever else in the gang is interested).

I won't object to additional comaint bits on any of the other distributions
you listed (the more the merrier, for redundancy) but cannot make any
promises as to bandwidth for processing its outstanding issues.
