in reply to Win32::GuiTest module

Determining the maintainer is easy :)

  • You can report a module issue at CPAN RT. The author will automatically get mail about it. If you encounter a porblem, that's where you should report it (although chekc the docs for other preferences). Very few CPAN authors read Perlmonks looking for bug reports.
  • Look at CPAN Search for that module (Win32::GuiTest). CPAN Search collects a lot of module meta data in one place. You'll find lots of interesting stuff.
  • Read the module documentation (perhaps using perldoc). The maintainers are usually listed at the end of the docs.
  • If you have a PAUSE account (although most Perl users don't), there is a "View Permissions" tool that can search by author or module
  • The cpan tool that comes with CPAN.pm (which comes with Perl) has a -D switch to show module details. Note that the module names are case sensitive:
    $ cpan -D Win32::GuiTest Win32::GuiTest -------------------------------------------------------------- SendKeys, FindWindowLike and more K/KA/KARASIK/Win32-GuiTest-1.54.tar.gz Installed: CPAN: 1.54 Not up to date Dmitry Karasik (KARASIK) dmitry@karasik.eu.org

Good luck :)
