You can assign as many admins as you like on pause

So I've heard it claimed. When I and another pointed out that the interface doesn't actually appear to support this, silence was the only response. (Re^6: Losing faith in CPAN - unresponsive module authors (ownership--))

I really don't see what's so hard about that

You presume I am even that active on CPAN. For most modules, that assumption is broken. I want to set up my modules so that others can contribute to them even after I get hit by a bus or become a Quarker, even for modules that nobody has yet expressed an interest in contributing to. And I want people to be able to contribute without there having to first be one person who has the unnatural motivation to play "stalker" for 6 months and then beg admins to deign to allow contribution. It would be even cooler if others could do the same. I really don't see what is so hard to understand about that.
