Hi Mike and Yo-An,

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 Git distribution is one of these. Mike (MSOUTH) has the first-come 
permission on 12 modules in the distribution, and Yo-An (YOANLIN) has 
first-come on the other three, including the lead module, "Git".

All releases of "Git" have been done by MSOUTH, so I’m not sure how YOANLIN 
ended up with first-come permissions on 3 of the modules, but doesn’t even have 
co-maint on the rest. Maybe YOANLIN was going to adopt the distribution, but 
didn’t get all the permissions.

Who should I give all first-come permissions to? Looking at the history, I 
would guess MSOUTH, but thought I should check, since YOANLIN has first-come on 
the "Git" module itself.

Cheers,
Neil

PS I’ve bcc’d Yo-An, since the YOANLIN account has the flag set to keep the 
email address secret.
