Devel::Timer, Jason Moore

2006-05-23 Thread Jay Hannah

I recently submitted a patch to Devel::Timer to the author:

http://mail.pm.org/pipermail/omaha-pm/2006-May/000989.html

But his email address bounced. I Google'd the heck out of him, but can't seem 
find him anywhere.

http://search.cpan.org/~jmoore/

Anyone have a way to contact Jason?

If not, I'm volunteering to take over maintenance of Devel::Timer. I've been 
using CPAN for years, but haven't been an author, so if the powers that be are 
hep to letting me take over maintenance I'll read all the FAQs and dive in.

Let me know. Thanks,

Bummer. The whois admin of sober.com doesn't know how to reach Jason either... 
Anyone else have any other ideas?

If not, thoughts on my adoption of Devel::Timer?

Thanks,

Business::AAPOS?

2006-02-11 Thread Jay Hannah

Hola --

I'm automating one of American Airlines' new websites. It's called AAPOS and 
its used by companies (like the one I work for) who buy AA frequent flyer miles to give 
to their customers. I'm using WWW::Mechanize, mainly, and have gotten a couple handy 
features working.

I carefully kept all our proprietary junk out of this little ball of software, 
hoping I could contribute it to CPAN. I guessed that maybe Business::AAPOS 
would be a good namespace choice, but if its not I'd be happy to change it.

I've been coding Perl for years, but have never contributed to CPAN. I'd love 
any feedback anyone has about this namespace choice, my code, whether or not 
you guess others mind find this useful, whatever.

One downside (?) is that this code will shatter whenever they change or abandon 
their website. I'll be happy to keep the bundle updated since I'll have to for 
my day job anyway. :)  Also, AA is promising more native automation some day, 
but they certainly don't have it so far and it could be years before they get 
around to it, if ever. Also, whatever year AA completely abandones AAPOS this 
software will be useless to everyone. Is there a facility for removing it from 
CPAN in the event that it becomes 100% unusable?

It's not ready for PAUSE upload yet, but here's my code so far:
http://jays.net/tmp/Business-AAPOS.tgz

There's some POD in there. All feedback very welcome! Thoughts?

Thanks!

(I'd contribute frequent flyer check-digit algorythms for several airlines, 
too, but those algos all have NDAs attached to them. I notice that the credit 
card algo's are on CPAN even though the CC companies all require NDAs...?)
