On 18dec2001 I registered the Crypt::Tea namespace. On 14jan2002 I registered the Term::Clui namespace. On 6mar2002 I registered the CGI::Htauth namespace. On 19oct2002 I registered the Math::Evol namespace.
But, then and forever, from "Edit Module Metadata": > Sorry, there are no modules registered belonging to PJB. > Please note, only modules that are already registered in > the module list can be edited here. If you believe, this > is a bug, please contact [EMAIL PROTECTED] On 23jan2002, on 20may2002, on 4jul2002, on 12jul2002, on 28aug2002, I wrote about the "Sorry, there are no modules registered belonging to PJB" message I was getting when I tried to "Edit Module Metadata". There should be CGI::Htauth, Term::Clui, Crypt::Tea and Math::Evol. There has been no reply. I have also been in communication with [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] and with [EMAIL PROTECTED] on the subject. I am able to upload new versions and delete old ones, and receive the usual confirmatory emails. The modules still appear in $CPAN/authors/id/P/PJ/PJB so I'm still working on them and they have been through several significant revisions; but obviously I am beginning to get the impression that CPAN simply doesn't work. Perhaps there is a programming bug, perhaps there is a social engineering bug, I don't know which. Can it be revived ? Is there anything I can do to help ? I particularly want to suggest that whenever a plea for namespace registration is rejected, the supplicant should be informed of the reason for the refusal, rather than just ingored. I don't actually expect this email to be attended to, but I do hope that it will be found by some future net historian trawling through archives trying to understand the history of CPAN and Perl.
