I'm pretty confident that this needs to by fixed by the author. The only 
other possibility would be the following chain of events:

- Jonathan doesn't react to this at all. (Not even saying he's not going 
to do anything about it.) Or says he's willing to give up the module.
- You contact the PAUSE admins (modules@perl.org) showing that you have 
been trying to contact Jonathan by various means for an extended period 
of time.
- You get the permissions to use the namespace, download the 
distribution, fix it, upload with $VERSION++.

Again: This is only a fallback. Ideally, the author should fix the 
distribution. I see that he's cc'd, so I suppose he'll chime in shortly.

Cheers,
Steffen
