Hi, If you feel it should not be unmask then please mask it again. Although it might be too late for that. Moreover, I don't think raising this issue to the mailing list is appropriate as a first step. Did you try to talk to him? If you feel he violated the perl@ team policies please consider following the QA policy for such violations https://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/glep/glep-0048.html -- Regards, Markos Chandras - Gentoo Linux Developer http://dev.gentoo.org/~hwoarang
