Hi Yung-chung,

As you know, I’m working through resolving PAUSE permissions conflicts that 
arose when PAUSE started treating package names case-insensitively. One of the 
distributions affected is “Llg”, which was last released in 1996, and cannot be 
installed from CPAN on recent versions of Perl. The author of that distribution 
is happy for it to be deleted from CPAN, since he hasn’t done Perl for a long 
time, and has no interest in maintaining it.

There is one distribution on CPAN which uses Llg, and that is your 
Lingua-LinkParser-MatchPath distribution: the 
Lingua::LinkParser::MatchPath::Lex modules uses the Lex module which is part of 
the Llg distribution.

Your Lingua-LinkParser-MatchPath hasn’t installed on any versions of Perl for 
at least the last 10 years, so I’m wondering whether you want to maintain it, 
or whether you think the best thing would be to remove that from CPAN as well?

There are at least two options:

  * If you want to get your distribution working again, you could adopt the Llg 
distribution and fix its problems.
  * You could delete Lingua-LinkParser-MatchPath from CPAN, or give me 
permission to. Then I could safely delete LLg.

What would you like to do?

Cheers,
Neil
