Given that, I’ve just transferred first-come to P5P, with you retaining co-maint on all modules in the Math-BigInt distribution. > * Math-Complex: This distribution appears to be dead. The most recent version > was released in 2012. Interesting. When looking at these modules (where P5P has permissions), I just ran `corelist <module>` and trusted what it said. Turns out that with Math::Complex and Math::Trig, corelist lies. Looking through Perl releases, the distribution was dropped in 5.10.0 (i.e. the last release containing them was 5.8.9). I’ve copied BinGOs on this email — Chris, it will no doubt be much quicker for you to update Module::CoreList than me :-) > (I have several times through the years contacted ZEFRAM about getting > permissions to fix some of the issues with the distribution and release new > versions, but I have never received a reply.) If you’re still open to releasing an update to the Math-Complex dist, you could email ZEFRAM again, copying in the PAUSE admins (modules@perl.org, copied on this email). If you don’t get a response from Andrew in an appropriate timeframe, we’d try and contact him, and then if we failed, as per the PAUSE Operating Model, we’d give you co-maint. Cheers, Neil
