Re: How to do co-maintenance on CPAN distro which uses Dist::Zilla (Travis and other questions)

Agreed.  We have a similar setup with the various BioPerl distributions now; the release is tied to the PAUSE credentials of the co-maintainer.

Not sure I understand the question here. The CPAN release and its upload has nothing to do with the source repository, and will be entirely up to the PAUSE credentials you use when doing `dzil release`. The metadata referring to the GitHub repository is, in this case, controlled by the use of the [MetaResources] plugin, so if that repository is still being used then no change is needed there.
