Stuff with the Perl Foundation. A couple of patches in the Perl core. A few CPAN modules. That about sums it up.

Give up your modules
No names, but if you happen to be sitting on modules which other people depend on and you're not going to fix bugs, give up the module, offer someone co-maintainership or figure out something which gives users a way out. I realize that not everyone has a pile of free time to constantly upgrade and maintain modules, but if it's something widely used and you don't have time for it, isn't the responsible thing to find a way to get those bug fixes out there?
I pour myself a cup of strong coffee. :-)
