in thread Howto abandon rights to a cpan module and stop getting bug reports for it?

Contact me via email. My home node lists a few ways to reach me. Let me know the module name. If it interests me I'll pick it up and maintain it. If it doesn't interest me but seems valuable, I'll pick it up as a patch-pusher/tester until someone more interested comes along. I'd rather do that than see something of value just getting deleted. Worst case, I'll try to bridge to the next true maintainer. In that case I would also make a few announcements on the appropriate mailing lists.

    That makes a great argument for just deleting the module and/or abandoning a PAUSE account
