Hi, I am the current maintainer of the module Syntax::Highlight::Engine::Kate I got a bug report https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=85463 requesting to remove the old version of the distribution, but I don't have the rights to that as they were not uploaded by me.
The author was not responsive a few years ago already when I wanted to take over the module so I doubt he will be now. How can I remove those distributions? Actually this can be a more generic question. What happens to the old distributions on CPAN that were uploaded by the author or a previous maintainer if they disappear and after there is a new maintainer? regards Gabor
