Subject: Changes of 0.12 and 0.13 missing
Hi Todd, probably it's not a good idea to take maintainership of modules when you're to busy to do it well. Here you've forgotten the ChangeLog for the changes 0.12 and 0.13. Jens

Clearly I am a bad person for neglecting something so critical as a Changelog. Fixing bugs is far less important than that. Since you appear to have more free time than I do, I would encourage you to read the commit log in detail and submit a patch for the next release: http://github.com/toddr/Safe-Hole/commits/master/ Enjoy.

Probably you're a bad person, but that's not the point. If you're only care to fix bugs, ask people like Adam Kennedy (or me) to take responsibility to upload the releases to CPAN, use Adam's open repository to fix the bugs and all people will be happy. From my point of view, as CPAN author and as packager of CPAN packages in pkgsrc this is a real and legitimate critic - if you take it personally, you're choice. I sent you 3 month ago a patch for Tie::DBI - explaining what the patch does and why, no reaction. Repository on github is not up-to-date comparing to uploaded releases at CPAN. Tux (H.Merijn Brand) asked friendly for a co-working in Tie::DBI regarding his Tie::Hash::DBD work - practically no response from you. Show quoted text

Be sure, I don't touch github more than necessary. It's not my world. You made the release, you are responsible. This isn't a one-time-issue, you seem to have more responsibility than your time seems to allow. Again: if you're only interested in fixing bugs, this is very ok for me, but then go and find a responsible person who ensures the quality of the uploaded packages. There are some and I'm really thankful for any person who's fixing bugs. Great, welcome, awesome. But frankly, persons who fixing bugs doesn't need to be the same persons who make releases.

This is not the appropriate place for a flame war, which the ticket is approaching. I'm moving the conversation to email.
