Hi Mumia

Yes, I am on Windows and used the tar utility that comes with cygwin and the
syntax:
tar -cf GD-3DBarGrapher-0.9.1.tar.gz /GD-3DBarGrapher-0.9.1
Just did an ls-l and it does appear that permissions on the folder were
owner only. I chmod'd them to 644 using cygwin and then created the tar
again, so will upload that and request a reindex. Hopefully that will then
work.

In the README file in the package it has my email as swarhurst AT cpan.org
which works. One of the testers of 0.9.0 emailed me OK.
Thanks
