Subject: Incorrect tar archive
Hi, The "MQSeries-1.28-b.tar.gz" archive expands into a directory named "MQSeries-1.28" . Normally, you would expect that archive to expand into "MQSeries-1.28-b". Best regards, Jens-Petter Salvesen

The 1.28-b release is a fixed version of the 1.28 release which adds missing files. The -b was only added because CPAN doesn't allow you to re-use an existing name. The $VERSION in the package remains at 1.28, not 1.28-b. We certainly aim to use the proper directory name for releases, but if something goes wrong we have to correct it.

Dear Hildo, I believe a better approach would be to release 1.29 as a bugfix release and pull 1.28. That way, you would not have to deviate from conventions. Best Regards, Jens-Petter Salvesen

The 1.28-b release will not be re-spun as 1.29 just to conform the standard directory name for CPAN modules. We certainly aim to have upcoming releases follow standard naming conventions.
