in thread Registering CPAN module namespace

Not very well monitored? What's your standard for that? Almost everything is taken care of the same day. I take offense at you spreading FUD about this. I look at the list every day that I have net access, which is almost every day. Adam and Steffen take care of quite a bit of work, and Johan immediately takes care of all new Id requests.

It's extremely well monitored. You are saying that we are slacking, and you do mean offense. Saying anything about it has nothing to do with the point you are making and you could have left it out. But you have some reason to take a swipe at us.

So, what didn't we do for you that you think we should have done? What grudge do you have? Are you still mad about a two week delay in response for Tree::Simple from 2004? That was four years ago. Since then you've written to modules rarely and in in case received a prompt reply.

Update: Indeed, modules@perl.org is for dealing with PAUSE, fixing broken distros, and transferring module permissions. Any sort of other discussion is best taken elsewhere. That address isn't a mailing list, it's just a mail alias for all of the admins. If someone wants to discuss modules, they probably better off in module-authors@perl.org, or even right here on Perlmonks.
