Like I said, here's the email.
http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.cpan.testers/2009/03/msg3537903.html

Says it's using the latest version of CPAN::Reporter (1.1705) and it sure is
there in the source code.

Also http://stats.cpantesters.org/cpanmail.html isn't working.  I tried the
above ID (3537903) and it ground for a few minutes and timed out.  Ahh, this
time I got "ERROR  Sorry, the NNTP is currently unavailable, please try again
shortly."

It's been a year.  Color me impatient.

And I don't mind a handful that hide their address.  If they don't want to get
contacted that badly, fine.

Like I said, the details aren't important so long as there's a clear, single
step to get more information from the reporter.  That's all I really want to
hear is that's in the plan.
