Re^2: How long to PAUSE?

I remember even years ago when I wouldn't get a response for weeks at a time, and that was at the height of Perl's hayday. Patience is key.

In the meantime, Bod, here's a good article for you to read as you go forward as a new CPAN author.

Congratulations by the way. I remember when I first got my PAUSE account. I was both excited and nervous. The CPAN was where I uploaded my very first publicly available software, and I haven't stopped since.

The CPAN was where I uploaded my very first publicly available software, and I haven't stopped since Thank you - I share that dichotomy feeling excited and nervous! I've seen it described as a "rite-of-passage" in this article which gave me some heads up that it was time to get a PAUSE account created. As a side effect of what I write, I am producing some generically useful modules and, if they are useful to me, they might just be useful to someone else so it seems only right to publish them. Having just about completed the Controlling USB on Raspberry Pi project I also want to share the process in the hope it might help and even inspire others. This will be from setting up the hardware through the software creation to getting it connected to Alexa via AWS Lambda. I am guessing Git Hub would be the natural place for that...	[reply]
