in reply to Orphan Module not on CPAN

Coplan,
It is very possible that this mysterious module has been replaced by some new module that is on CPAN and is being maintained. It is hard to tell, since you didn't give the name of the module or even what it does.

Cheers - L~R

    I'm guessing he's run into the Amine Moulay Ramdane Win32 modules...

    The site where they were hosted has been gone for more than a year now, and they were never on CPAN.

    Searching in google groups for recent posts about those modules brings up several "I need Win32::{xxx}, but Amine's site is gone"-type messages.

    (Edit: This wild guess of mine turns out to be wrong, see below.)

      I don't really think so. Amine did not distribute the sources of the C part of his modules (As far as I know:-( so Coplan would only be able to patch the Perl part

      Anyway I second Limbic~Region's suggestion. Coplan, please tell us what module it is, who's the author and maybe someone will even know where did the person go.
