Hi Andreas,
The relevant excerpt from the linked batchpause commit is at
https://github.com/batchpause/PAUSE-git/commit/7915cd66c4954a7870d6b332c97572769b123586#diff-624efaeb31f29f140519a9b55cc1635bL309812
It shows me being given, on Sat, 27 Jul 2019 20:17:03 GMT, first-come on:
PDL::LinearAlgebra::Complex
PDL::LinearAlgebra::Real
PDL::LinearAlgebra::Trans
However, NOT on:
PDL::LinearAlgebra
PDL::LinearAlgebra::Special
As Grinnz says, his (and my) expectation would be that I would still have such
permission. However, the PAUSE email said:
Status: No permissions for distribution name
============================================
module : PDL::LinearAlgebra::Complex
version: 0.13
in file: PDL-LinearAlgebra-0.13/GENERATED/PDL/LinearAlgebra/Complex.pm
status : Not indexed; ETJ not authorized for this distribution name
module : PDL::LinearAlgebra::Real
version: 0.13

Status: Permission missing
==========================
module : PDL::LinearAlgebra
version: 0.13
in file: PDL-LinearAlgebra-0.13/LinearAlgebra.pm
status : Not indexed because permission missing. Current registered
primary maintainer is ELLIPSE. Hint: you can always find
the legitimate maintainer(s) on PAUSE under "View
Permissions".
module : PDL::LinearAlgebra::Special
version: 0.13
in file: PDL-LinearAlgebra-0.13/Special/Special.pm
status : Not indexed because permission missing. Current registered
primary maintainer is ELLIPSE. Hint: you can always find
the legitimate maintainer(s) on PAUSE under "View
Permissions".
The second part is as expected (I have no permissions on those modules) but the
first part “No permissions for distribution name / Not indexed; ETJ not
authorized for this distribution name” is not expected. Additionally, the
“peek_perms” (“View Permissions per module”) shows for
PDL::LinearAlgebra::Trans, no first-come at all.
Can you help me understand?
Best regards,
Ed

Context guesswork:
- citations from toolchain
- possibly talking about ETJ/PDL-LinearAlgebra-0.13.tar.gz
- did you receive the email that pause sent to you after the upload?
- if you got it: what is not clear in that email?
- if you didn't get it: maybe look into your spam folder?
- ELLIPSE has firstcome permissions on PDL::LinearAlgebra and is the
first authority to decide upon its fate
- when there is further context that I'm missing, please provide
pointers
