Hi Dan,
I’m one of the PAUSE admins. 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.
You are owner of the “pragmatic” namespace, and have a “pragmatic” module as
part of your wildproto distribution, last released in 2003. This now conflicts
with the “Pragmatic” module, owned by BINKLEY.
I noticed that your distribution hasn’t worked with any version of Perl since
5.12.1, and doesn’t work on most older Perls either:
http://matrix.cpantesters.org/?dist=wildproto+1.0.1
Given that, I wonder if the easiest way to resolve this would be to delete
wildproto from CPAN and drop your permissions on the relevant namespaces. Would
you be happy for me to do this on your behalf?
PAUSE doesn’t let situations like this occur any more, so I’m working through
the existing cases.
Cheers,
Neil
