Hello All,
Got a small project here at Shutterstock to use Amazon Mechanical Turk. Unfortunately the Perl SDK seem to be very much under maintained.
The ownership seems to be assigned directly to Amazon, so I can't really find a contact. I left a message on Sourceforge, where the SDK seems to live (although there are no commits there).
Anyone have a clue who I can talk to? I'm happy to take comaint on this and try to fix it up a bit, at least close out issues for which patches are floating around. Also, I am trying a young programmer and this is a good opportunity to get him into contributing to Open Source (and Perl). Suggestions welcomed.
If it looks like the author has disappeared, the PAUSE admins can transfer the module. I know you know this, but now the rest of the world does. We lay that out in the CPAN and PAUSE FAQ.

The issue here is the distribution is owned by https://metacpan.org/author/MTURK which appears to be a sort of system or shared account for Amazon. I am having trouble finding a person behind it. I might need to take it to PAUSE although I'd prefer to do it the nice way.
thanks for the advice!

If you look at the SourceForge project (http://sourceforge.net/projects/mturksdk-perl/) there are three users related to the project there. Did you try contacting them?
