A long time ago some of us stepped up to take over Randy's PAUSE account after his passing. Right now rkobes uses my email address, which really isn't a big deal, but it's been awhile and I don't think anyone is trying to actually reach Randy. Maybe it's time to black hole his account.

Hi both, I’m happy to give one or both of you co-maint on CPAN::Audit – I tried various ways to get in touch with Viacheslav (VTI), with no response. I think that Viacheslav is Ukrainian, in which case he has more important things on his mind. Be prepared that in the future Viacheslav may want

Re: Taking over CPAN::Audit

If Renée wants to handle the CPAN::Audit module, I'm happy to do the data collection side it depends on. My first goal is a simple update with the code that already exists, and a way to make quick releases with new data. I don't care who makes the actual releases though. Neil (and modul
