Hello, CPAN librarians.
I and several others who depend on Text::ScriptTemplate have tried to
contact the author over many years to no avail, as you can see below from
the bounce and other messages without a response.
There are a couple of patches that fix problems with it. I'm ready to do a
release if I can be allowed to in PAUSE. My username is JONJ.
Can someone please authorize that for me?
Thanks,
Jon

Taisuke,
I've been trying to get in touch with you for quite a while -- see below!
I'm still interested in taking over maintenance of Text::ScriptTemplate
and realized I hadn't yet tried emailing your t...@cpan.org address.
We are still using it and would love to keep it current.
Thank you again for creating it, and thanks in advance for any reply!
Jon

I'm still interested in taking over maintenance of Text::ScriptTemplate
and found this email address for you in your Audio::SoundFile module on
CPAN.
We are still using it and would love to keep it current.

Taisuke,
I wrote to you over 7 years ago as copied below! And I'm still interested
in the Text::ScriptTemplate module. I wanted to see if you would mind if I
take over maintenance of the module on CPAN. We use it on some systems and
would like to keep it current.
Thank you in advance for any reply.

Taisuke,
Thank you very much for releasing your excellent CPAN module
Text::ScriptTemplate! It does exactly what we needed and no more, and is
well-written and documented. It works much better for us than heavier
solutions like Embperl, Mason, or Template Toolkit.
I have added a couple of features to our copy:
(1) Add support for <% ... -%> and <%= ... -%> like Ruby on Rails' ERuby.
It strips the trailing newline if any.
(2) Added caching of the prepared code on disk, for faster speed. The Perl
code can be slurped in, compiled, and run, without having to parse the
template every time.
(3) A couple of minor tweaks to initializer and documentation.
Are you interested in taking a look at the patch and considering it for
the CPAN module? If so, please let me know and I'll send it.
Thanks again!
Jon
