I'm afraid, that's a quirk of CPAN permissions, I need to chase up an
author of some updated code that's now included in the package rather
than seperately to get him to assign permissions, and then get Ask to
update the packages status, I was planning to get another release out
while sorting that out.

Where did you send the patches? Are they in rt.cpan.org, if so can you
provide the bug numbers so I can add regression tests to ensure they
aren't broken again.

Well spotted, and easily fixed.

Thanks for the help on this, I'd *really* appreciate it if you could
enter these as individual tickets in the queue at rt.cpan.org.

Also, I'm afraid I've neglected to thank you for your work packaging
it up for debian, so thanks a large bunch :)

regards,

A.
