Hi Chitresh,

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. 
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 have ownership of the “file” namespace, and have a “file” module in your 
link_NCBI distribution:
        https://metacpan.org/release/link_NCBI
This now conflicts with the “File” namespace, owned by ADAMK.

The link_NCBI zip file isn’t packaged as a proper CPAN distribution, and so 
cannot be installed. 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.

I don’t think these actions will cause anyone any problems, but wanted to check 
with you — are you happy for me to do these things?

PAUSE doesn’t let situations like this occur any more; I’m working on resolving 
the existing cases.

Cheers,
Neil
