Recently I published a new release of the Perl distribution Crypt::OpenSSL::X509.
A release had not been made since August, I had lined one up and planned for November 2021, but never got it shipped, but now I found the time.
As always I am incredibly happy for the users of, and the contributors to the distribution and this release contains PRs from 3 different contributors:
- James Rouzier @jrouzierinverse
- Florian Schlichting @fschlich
- Timothy Legge @timlegge

Well that all sounds honky dory BUT, things went sideways... the first attempt at an upload to PAUSE, the gateway for CPAN was an empty tar-ball.
Luckily Timothy Legge swiftly informed me of the issue. Unfortunately it is not possible to upload a file with the same name twice, so release 1.9.12 followed just after.
I think I need to write some scripts to help me with these releases, so I do not make stupid mistakes, or I should migrate to Dist::Zilla, which is a stronger tool compared to Module::Install IMHO.
The distribution still relies on OpenSSL 1, next up is support for OpenSSL 3. I am planning a bug fix/maintenance release in between.
Take care,
