Re: Your Data-Properties releases
Dear Neil, I'm afraid I can not maintain a package on CPAN. I have no idea how to do it, what are the expectations, what are the rules of operation and what is the responsibility of the maintainer. Yes, this is a personal problem, I could learn it. However I think the current situation cannot be solved correctly. We cannot know if anybody already relies on Johan's Data::Properties 1.05+. So switching back to Brian's original code can shock someone else. So I have to eat the leek and I can just pray that no one at the "Enormous Big Co." (what I work for) "upgrades" the v0.02 package in the corporate RPM repository.

Re: Your Data-Properties releases
Dear Neil, You have a second chance. :-) You may take over the namespace but you should keep strict compatibility with the original module. In such a situation new features and different behavior can be introduced via new methods and extra parametrization of the old ones.
