The right place for patches to the perlfaq are perlfaq-workers@perl.org. However, in this case I'll just write the answer myself and add it to the faq since I'm not only a perlfaq maintainer, but I'm also a PAUSE admin. :) And, even as I post this, it is already committed to perlfaq7 and submitted to the CPAN and PAUSE FAQs. Here's the answer: How do I adopt or take over a module already on CPAN?The easiest way to take over a module is to have the current module maintainer either make you a co-maintainer or transfer the module to you. If you can't reach the author for some reason (e.g. email bounces), the PAUSE admins at modules@perl.org can help. The PAUSE admins treat each case individually.
