That's been standard for as long as I can remember - the first cc to modules@ is what starts the clock to 'when can I ask for forced adoption?' I've been arranging such things for over half a decade now and basically we'll let it slide that people didn't if it's a clear cut case, but it's strongly recommended. > Mea culpa: I didn't mention the other (fruitless) searching for him that I > did. Right. Please do remember to do so in future. I'm probably coming across as being more of a hard-ass about this than I actually want to, but it's really annoying having to punt granting your request because I had to cross the i's and dot the t's for you when what I really wanted to do was click the 'add co-maint' button. Please take my frustration in that light and my apologies if I've not made that clear. -- Matt S Trout - Shadowcat Systems - Perl consulting with a commit bit and a clue http://shadowcat.co.uk/blog/matt-s-trout/ http://twitter.com/shadowcat_mst/ Email me now on mst (at) shadowcat.co.uk and let's chat about how our CPAN commercial support, training and consultancy packages could help your team.
