Yes, that would be the case, as that would prevent this situation happening again. > Could you please clarify your proposal with details on that front and > what is to happen should Peter be unable or unwilling to continue > working on DBIC? It would be no different to any other module. Ribasushi nominates someone should he be able to, otherwise: http://www.cpan.org/misc/cpan-faq.html#How_adopt_module Personally I trust Ribasushi to make such a nomination, and I know others do. If there are more people that don't, then that's what this vote is for. > If Peter agrees and your proposal carries, I don't want to be in a > situation where we have to have this debate again if he decides to > take his "well deserved retirement" after all The only reason we're in this situation is because of MST's (perfectly reasonable) claims to the namespace. This would clarify ownership once and for all, and leave the decision with the module owner, as it presumably is with all other modules.
