Hi, sorry for not answering sooner. Yes, I got a reply from the guys at MS. They said that they just started to work again on the module and that they will consider my patches. That was one month ago. Well, I guess they just need some more time. Thorsten 2017-05-18 16:56 GMT+02:00 Phillip Moore

If you are unable to get a response from them, please let me know. The guy who joined the team and was given responsibility for the code seems quite sincere about supporting it, so I will be happy to help get a conversation started. I'll reach out to them again today. On Thu, May 18, 2017 at 10

Apologies for the delay on getting back to everyone I was out of the country on vacation, and ignoring anything and everything remotely related to work. I heard back from the engineering team that owns the MQSeries module, and they have brought someone pretty senior into the team, and they h

Hi Phillip, hi Hildo, even though I applied for the ownership alone, there are some people who will help me maintaining it. I work at DZ Bank in Germany and we're a team of 3 (maybe 4) developers with ~20% perl development as part of our regular job. We do application integration and the MQSeries
