> Hey Andreas, > I'm getting hounded with complaints about my Module::AutoLoad suddenly > not working [...] Hi Rob, first of all, please accept my apologies. I was intending to write to you immediately, but then got distracted and found the open case again a bit late. I've now brought Module-AutoLoad-0.06.tar.gz back to your directory and made your account active again. But the module is not indexed anymore. I hope this works for you. As a way forward I'm leaning to suggest something that protects your fellow CPAN users from accidentally running into it again and/or something that reduces the potential to get people nervous and maybe also reduces the amount of required hacking when things go wrong next time. I think whatever meets such criteria should be good enough. I'm thinking of something like a disclaimer like when you sell a heating you're required to tell the customer that they have to be careful because the device gets hot when deployed. Otherwise *they* get a chance to ruin *your* day. In other words, better err on the side of caution. Sorry for the late answer and I hope this all now works again both for you and the rest of the community for at least the next ten years. Greetings from Berlin, -- andreas
