Request for developer account on CPAN
Hi, Could I have a developer account on CPAN please. I am working on an object-oriented application framework which I would like to upload soon. Here are the details: First Name: Rob Last Name: Symes Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Preferred UserID: RSYMES Many thanks, Rob Symes.
Developer Registration
I would like to register as a developer on CPAN. I have several modules to contribute. The info I think you need: Name: Rob Giseburt Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Homepage: none Preferred ID: GISEBURT What I'm Planning to Contribute: I have two modules that, when combined, provide a web-development package. One is Robz::ObjectFactory, and the other is Robz::Template2. Robz::ObjectFactory is a data abstraction package. It provides a simple interface to data of any kind. Robz::Template2 is a templating module that uses a token structure that is compatible with most GUI HTML editors, as well as providing a simple interface. Robz::ObjectFactory provides data in complex data structures that can be passed to Robz::Template2 with little to no modification. Robz::Template2 is currently being rewritten in C++. Both modules will later be combined into a single download with a common interface. The Robz:: namespace may change, but I have been unable to find a proper one that already exists on CPAN. I appreciate your time. Sincerely, ~Rob Giseburt
Registration and module idea
Hi I would like to register on PAUSE so I can contribute to CPAN please. Name:Robert Price Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] user-ID: RPRICE Description: WAP::WBXML::Decoder I am planning to contribute a module that can decode binary encoded XML and return XML that is readable by other XML modules already available on CPAN. The module would decode the binary XML format as described by the submission to the W3C at http://www.w3.org/TR/wbxml/ . There are two related modules on CPAN, but these both take XML and compile it to binary. They are CGI::WML and WAP:wbxml. Neither can decode back to XML. I would appreciate any comments should the namespace or anything else appear to be inappropriate with this request. Thanks, Robert Price

CPAN MODULE METADATA REPAIR: IO::Multiplex
Does anyone know who is strong enough to help fix this problem? I'm trying to fix all these IO::Multiplex CPAN issues, but I keep getting this spewage when I apply for the namespace: - Register NamespaceERROR: The submission didn't succeed due to the following reason:Dist L/LI/LIRAZ/IO-Multiplex-0.1.tar.gz, current version 0.1 has been uploaded by LIRAZ. Please contact LIRAZ or choose a different namespace.Nothing done. Please correct the form below and retry. - UGH! I told you, LIRAZ cannot be contacted. I've tried many times already. If you know how to contact him, please do so or tell me how. His emails contacts are broken! If not, then force the "CPAN User-ID" to "BBB" for me. Thanks, Rob Brown CPANID: BBB
Re: IO::Multiplex enhancement
Perl modules dudes:
We are having big problems with this LIRAZ guy who still will
not release control over IO::Multiplex because he cannot be
contacted. He is not involved with this version of IO::Multiplex
either. Can you reassign cpan author from LIRAZ to BBB for me?
Or how can we fix this situation?
Douglas:
Looks fantastic. I'm reviewing your patch now. I've only been
able to get around 50 connections/sec because of some large CPU
overhead. I'm starting to maintain it a little more, but I'm
not the original author. Bruce is. I think your patch will help.
You should see it in version 1.04. I'll let him know, too.
Thanks,
Rob Brown

Re: CPAN MODULE METADATA REPAIR: IO::Multiplex
Andreas: Yeah, I guess I have some evidence, but I'm not sure whose bug it is. I've been waiting since last year to be able to fix the meta data and DSLIP settings for some of my modules, but they don't show in the list: Sys::Ptrace File::DirSync Net::DNAT Am I doing something wrong?

Amazon::S3
Hi, More than a year ago I attempted to contact the author (several times) regarding this module. Several bugs have been logged against it, but there are no responses from the original authors. I have some fixes I can apply and have volunteered to adopt this module as it seems it is an orphan. It is an implementation of the older S3 protocol but still useful for many. I offer once more to adopt this module. Rob Lauer (bigfoot)
Re: Amazon::S3
Hi modules@perl.org, I sent the email below a few days ago and have yet to hear back. I am attaching several emails I have sent to the original author of the module over the last 3-4 years. Crickets. As recently as 2 years ago there have been folks wanting issues addressed in this module. I would like to adopt this module. I know modules@perl.org may be busy but it is disconcerting to at least not get a confirmation that the email has been received and is pending consideration. I was under the impression the Perl community was eager to have modules updated and fixed as authors do move on sometimes.

Module::AutoLoad issues
Hey Andreas, I'm getting hounded with complaints about my Module::AutoLoad suddenly not working so well for the past few hours. I also noticed it's suddenly gone from the CPAN, which is likely the root cause. It had been working fine for about 10 years until now. I found it curious that nobody even tried to reach out to me expressing any concerns at all. I'm sorry that I let my SSL certificate for https://r.cx/ expire. I didn't even notice it had been expired for a few days, but it's all good now. Next time you notice anything, please just notify me immediately. Or let me know what else we need to do to get everything working again. Any help would be appreciated. thanks! -- Rob

I need a registered PAUSE account
PAUSE, Name: Rob Brown Email:[EMAIL PROTECTED] URL: n/a UserID: BBB (I'm already using this handle other places and it will help people to recognize me. They are my initials - of which I am very proud of - Bob B. Brown.) Moduel: Net::DNSServer I'm ready to publish my work on Net::DNSServer to opensource. It's had a lot of feedback and interest over the past year. My module is basically a combination of Net::DNS, Net::Server, IPC::SharedCache, and utilizes many other modules already on CPAN. Why now? 1) When we got hacked (yes again) from using bind 8, I decided it was time to come up with an alternative. Net::DNSServer is meant to be used as a drop-in replacement for bind. Since it is tainted perl, it is much less likely to be exploited. 2) Now that Michael Fuhr has patched his Net::DNS with my root zone bug fix and published the changes, my module is ready for the public. 3) My module is much more easily configured and adapted than bind, since it's written in Perl. It is implemented using what I call Resolver Modules each with different phases that can be hooked. (I got this idea from the Apache module concept, but it works slick with Perl ISA stuff.) 4) It can out perform bind in several ways when dealing with both ridiculously large numbers of zones and very large single zones (if configured properly). This will provide a wonderful solution for ISPs with tens of thousands of zones that all need to be updated frequently through a web interface. And the changes can be immediate without a HUP to the server! It still does not have all the features I want, but I was hoping to provide others with this module that they may benefit from it as I have and hopefully find things that could help improve it. Thanks, Rob Brown
Incorrect Module Metadata
I am the maintainer for Getopt::GetArgs - Enhanced argument passing to subroutines (only very recently) Net::Bind - Interface to bind named(8) related files (Delegated to me from Kevin Johnson KJOHNSON to help improve and make it more robust for production use.) I'm not able to repair the information using "Edit Module Metadata" at the following URL: https://pause.perl.org/pause/authenquery?ACTION=edit_mod because it only shows Net::DNSServer in my pulldown. What do I need to do to be able to modify the meta data for these other modules to be more accurate? Rob Brown PauseID: BBB
Re: Module update for Net::Bind
Nice suggestion, but this module is intended to be used by lower level daemons and third party utilities for domain parsing and configuration manipulation (Net::DNSServer is one example). It just takes care of some of the nitty gritty work. Also, this module is where Kevin put it and where it has been for the last four years. I'm not sure what the original motivation for listing it under Net:: was. Any other suggestions?

Immediately I am planning to contribute WINS::Winsdmp, a module
for working with the CSV data generated from the unique Windows
winsdmp utility. This module has immediate application to WINS
admins everywhere struggling with the transition to AS or trying
to get off of it. The module includes "guess" (sometimes that's
all you can do with MS) algorithems that associate a unique IP
with most recent host and user login, useful for finding out
who was last on an IP. (Take a look at the anonymous CVS tree
on http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/winsdmp/
or better yet, add yourselves as developers and help me put
the polish on this thing.)
I'm also working on Array::Shell in my spare time. It is
a module for helping authors create quick array-centric
command-line apps for interactively manipulating their favorite
arrays.
Also hoping to put up a version of the Picture Metadata Project
(currently in C++ and some Java) in Perl. It may be that this
ends up named something like DIG35:: instead.
I've made contributions to the Perl community in the past the
most notable of which was probably my work on "Mailmerge.pm"
with Lincoln Stein (but that was ages ago).

To The Modules Master: I'm trying to update DSLIP settings of some modules, but they are not showing in my module list with PAUSE. [BBB] Can someone help me fix it or tell me what I'm doing wrong or at least tell me someone that knows how to take care of these problems? The following need to show in my list: 1) Sys::Ptrace - Perl interface to the ptrace(2) command Did I stick this in the wrong root? Or is this module inappropriate? Or what? Just let me know. 2) File::DirSync - Syncronize two directories rapidly I have no idea. Do I just need to wait for someone to add it to the module list, or what? 3) Net::Ping - check a remote host for reachability I think this is the toughest one of all. It is still with Russell Mosemann (RMOSE), but he told me he'd be happy to switch it to me. Unfortuneatly, he says he has password/email problems or something. Maybe Andreas König is still working on fixing this one? Below are some emails from Russell which might help with that. Thanks for the help!

Contrary to the rumors, I am alive, if a little backlogged. :-) I am impressed at the improvements being done to Net::Ping.

PetShop - an example to compare with J2EE's Pet Store demo Type - type hierarchy with interfaces to SQL, HTML, XML, etc. UI - facades, views, and widgets to generate HTML You can download the latest version at: http://www.bivio.biz/hm/download-bOP The evolution of bOP has occurred over a period of two years explicitly and over two decades implicitly. For the general philosophy behind bOP, please read: http://www.bivio.biz/hm/why-bOP Visit the bOP Pet Shop for a demo: http://petshop.bivio.biz Thanks, Rob Nagler [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Issues with Net::DNS
Chris, This is really all my fault. I just needed my "." (root) patch fix that Mike applied to 0.19 (but is not in 0.12) at CPAN so the systems guys here could trust it enough to install it on our machines. I did the upload straight off fuhr.org over a month ago: --- original message --- Date: Fri, 12 Apr 2002 01:03:27 +0200 Subject: Notification from PAUSE From: "Perl Authors Upload Server" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Rob Brown" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> BBB (Rob Brown) visited the PAUSE and requested an upload into his/her directory. The request used the following parameters HIDDENNAME [BBB] CAN_MULTIPART [1] pause99_add_uri_httpupload [] pause99_add_uri_uri [http://www.fuhr.org/users/mfuhr/perldns/Net-DNS-0.19.tar.gz] SUBMIT_pause99_add_uri_uri [ Upload this URL ] pause99_add_uri_sub[pause99_add_uri_httpupload] === Sorry to cause the problems. No wonder I've been getting spammed with all these Net::DNS issues from people. I have not had much involvement with Net::DNS, so you don't need to worry about stepping on my toes. I would appreciate at least anonymous CVS access to your Net-DNS repository so I may submit more accurate patches to the latest developmental source tree, but it isn't crucial. To "resolve" the matter, just upload your 0.20 tarball to CPAN so it will bounce back to you. But please do so soon. Though it is usually a bit more work, I think it is best to release often and have lots of versions as opposed to changing very many things and releasing less frequently. It makes for easier bug pinpointing for the users to report to the developer, provides fewer code changes per version change, allows users to test against more current code base, and reduces multiple reports of identical bugs.

Wrong IO::Multiplex version
These compile errors are happening because IO::Multiplex is still out of date on the cpan list: http://cpan.org/modules/01modules.index.html You can get the latest version (1.02) from http://search.cpan.org/search?dist=IO-Multiplex I've been trying to maintain IO::Multiplex, but I cannot contact LIRAZ ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) who has control over the module. I always get bad email errors like the following: - Hi. This is the qmail-send program at onion.perl.org. I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following addresses. This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out. <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: 165.212.8.32 does not like recipient. Remote host said: 550 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>...

User not known - I've also been trying to work with Bruce Keeler (BRUCEK) who has contributed to IO::Multiplex as well, but I'm not sure there is much he can do either. To fix this problem, I believe that either LIRAZ must be contacted, or the control should be changed to someone that is willing to take over. Can [EMAIL PROTECTED] help?

Re: File::NFSLock patches
Schmidt, I was out of the country when you emailed me on June 20th, but I did review your patches. Thank you for taking the time to help make improvements. And thank you for your time to follow up. I apologize for not responding earlier, but I want to assure you that I haven't completely dropped off the face of the earth. Mainly, I didn't immediately apply the patch because I already assumed it didn't work on Windows. It is based on hard linking files after all. And hard links just don't exist on NTFS or FAT32, right? But are you saying that File::NFSLock actually functions on some flavor of Windows with your patch? Is that because the NFS mount could be UNIX on the actual host and so hard links actually could still work? I'm just having a hard time fathoming this. But if it's true, I will have a new version released to CPAN today or tomorrow.
