A bug can be moved to a different queue (module) via fields on the "Jumbo" page of the ticket. There's also a field for Owner that might work for passing a bug to someone else, but if it doesn't then I think they have to "Take" it. > Not to talk about removing myself as the primary address from some modules... If it's not automatically kept in sync with PAUSE data then (hopefully) emailing [EMAIL PROTECTED] would help. rt.cpan.org is not perfect, and needs to be upgraded to RT3 (as rt.perl.org was a while ago). But I can't imagine how using gmail would have more pros than cons. Tim.
