Hi, I managed to delete the file Text::Histogram. Hopefully without any changes to Neves's Text::Histogram. I changed the name and uploaded mine again with name Text::HistogramChart. http://search.cpan.org/~mikkoi/Text-HistogramChart-0.002/ -- Mikko Koivunalho Mikko Koivunalho [mikko.koivunalho@kolumbus.fi] kirjoitti: > Dear Sirs, > > I recently uploaded a new module called Text::Histogram. > Very soon after that Mr. Sullivan kindly pointed out to me that Text::Histogram already existed. > It was uploaded last December by its author Neves. > But CPAN/PAUSE didn't stop me from uploading! > It did mark the module as " ** UNAUTHORIZED RELEASE **", though. > I was wondering, shouldn't CPAN or PAUSE give some kind of warning. > > > > http://search.cpan.org/~neves/Text-Histogram-0.01/ > > > http://search.cpan.org/~mikkoi/Text-Histogram-0.001/ > > Is it safe for me to just delete my Text::Histogram distro, without any harm to Neves' module? > > Of course, now I will have to rename my module. > I would welcome any help in deciding a new name. > If you have the time, please take a look at my module. > I pondered upon Text::Chart::Histogram but I wouldn't want to start a new namespace since Text::Histogram is for the moment the only chart I will publish.
