Hi Darren,

I’m one of the PAUSE admins. I’m still working on resolving conflicts caused by 
PAUSE now considering CPAN package names case insensitively. This has left us 
with some situations where people are owners of namespaces previously 
considered distinct, and now considered the same.

Your Locale-KeyedText distribution includes a number of example modules, and 
until very recently PAUSE would index example modules and assign permissions. 
As a result you have ownership of the MyLib namespace, which conflicts with 
GAAS’s ownership of “mylib”, which is in his mylib distribution.

Given PAUSE no longer indexes example modules (because they’re not installed 
when someone installs the distribution), I’m going to drop your permissions on 
the example modules, to resolve this conflict. This shouldn’t cause any problem 
(and if it does, I’ll sort that out), but please shout if you have any concerns 
or questions.

PAUSE doesn’t let these kinds of conflicts occur any more — I’m cleaning up the 
existing cases.

Cheers,
Neil

Hello Neil,

This is my second response to your message.

I realized that I could actually do this relevant cleanup myself, so I went to pause.perl.org and relinquished some namespace reservations/permissions that I shouldn't have.

    Removed primary maintainership of DUNCAND from MyApp::L::Eng.
    Removed primary maintainership of DUNCAND from MyApp::L::Fre.
    Removed primary maintainership of DUNCAND from MyApp::L::Homer.
    Removed primary maintainership of DUNCAND from MyLib.
    Removed primary maintainership of DUNCAND from MyLib::L::Eng.
    Removed primary maintainership of DUNCAND from MyLib::L::Fre.
    Removed DUNCAND from co-maintainers of MyApp::L::Eng.
    Removed DUNCAND from co-maintainers of MyApp::L::Fre.
    Removed DUNCAND from co-maintainers of MyApp::L::Homer.
    Removed DUNCAND from co-maintainers of MyLib.
    Removed DUNCAND from co-maintainers of MyLib::L::Eng.
    Removed DUNCAND from co-maintainers of MyLib::L::Fre.

That should take care of everything relevant to my Locale-KeyedText distribution, all of the non-installing example modules.

I will also expunge a heap of other incorrect or obsolete namespace reservations/permissions that DUNCAND has, in the near future after I've confirmed that the above changes seem to be reflected in the public CPAN directories correctly.

It is still on you to give GAAS the "mylib" privilege or whatever you think he should have. I elected not to do a transfer grant myself to keep things simpler.
