Hi Rick & Dave, I’m one of the PAUSE admins. I’m tidying up distributions that have shared first-come ownership, since PAUSE tries now to not let this happen — it maintains the permissions profile on the lead module, regardless of who releases (in the past the releaser would get first-come on newly added modules).
The DateTime-Format-Strptime distribution is one of these. Rick did the first 21 releases, and so has the first-come indexing permission on DateTime::Format::Strptime. Dave has done all releases since 2010, and has the first-come indexing permission on DateTime::Format::Strptime::Types. PAUSE’s policy now, when new modules are added, is to give the same permissions on the module as on the lead module, so Rick would get first-come on any new modules. We could follow this policy and give Rick first-come on both modules in the distribution. But I wonder if it makes more sense to give Dave first-come on the distribution, since he’s been maintaining it for the last 10 years? If you’re happy with this Rick, I can make the change for you? Cheers, Neil
