Subject: CPAN - split ownership of Net-Amazon-EC2 distribution

Hi Mark & Jeff,

I’m one of the PAUSE admins, and I’m working through distributions that have 
split ownership, typically caused because releasers with co-maint added new 
packages, and in the past PAUSE would give them first-come on the new package. 
PAUSE now tries to ensure consistent permissions, so I’m working through the 
historical cases[1]. Net-Amazon-EC2 is one of them.

Jeff did the first bunch of releases, and has the first-come permission on the 
majority of modules.

Mark has done releases since 2012, and has first-come on the packages he’s 
added.

Normally the default is to give all permissions to the original author or 
whoever has first-come on the lead module (Net::Amazon::EC2), but I wonder if 
in this case it would make more sense to give all first-come permissions to 
Mark (MALLEN), as he’s the one actively maintaining this? JKIM would have 
co-maint on all modules.

If you’re happy with this, I can make the changes for you.

Cheers,
Neil
