Missing modules (? - or missing brain cells)

I am trying (belatedly!) to subscribe to the forums for the modules I have written, but I have been unable to find the following distributions: Geo-WebService-Elevation-USGS, Mac-Pasteboard, and PPIx-Regexp. The links from http://search.cpan.org/ do nothing useful, and a CPAN::Forum search (with both dashes and double colons) comes up empty.

The missing modules are my three most recent, but they are not all that recent, dating back to late 2008.

Recommendations? Am I holding my tongue wrong? Or am I just too blind to see what's in front of my nose?

That's because CPAN::Forum stopped updating itself many moons ago.

Just a few days ago I started to work on it again. Soon I'll switch the whole system from SQLite to PostgreSQL and then I'll also fix the update problem.

Expect me 4 days from now at dawn from the east.

Hi Tom,

I just checked and the newly started script already added there 3 packages to the database.
