| Subject: | Write up exemplary core modules |
Reminder / brainstorming space for me.
15:21:30 <apeiron> And I use it in that capacity.
15:21:42 <apeiron> Every time someone comes onto freenode #perl asking for
things to look at, I point 'em ther.
15:21:43 <apeiron> there
15:21:48 <perigrin> Josh also suggested pulling Core modules out for marketing
purposes
15:22:00 <apeiron> Elaborate, please?
15:22:20 <perigrin> basically if there is somethign already in Perl core (or Dual
Lifed)
15:22:29 <perigrin> that we think deserves special attention
15:22:32 <apeiron> ah
15:22:38 <apeiron> strict and warnings!
15:22:39 <apeiron> seriously
15:22:44 <perigrin> sure
15:22:59 <perigrin> we'll need to document this change in policy in teh POD
15:23:14 <apeiron> How would that work, though? Just mention it in the POD and
not try to install it?
15:24:58 <perigrin> just a little paragraph talking about how Task::Kensho is now a
marketing tool and we're starting to pull out Modules that we think deserve
notoriety
15:25:09 <perigrin> not just based on their likeily hood to be installed
15:25:15 <perigrin> if you see what I mean
15:26:04 <apeiron> ah
15:26:05 <apeiron> yes
15:26:19 <apeiron> So would strict/warnings be in the Makefile.PL? I don't think
that's wise with older CPAN.pms wanting to install perl in that case.
15:27:52 <perigrin> no
15:28:00 <perigrin> we'd just list them in teh POD
15:28:07 <perigrin> with links to their POD
15:30:41 * apeiron nods
15:30:45 <apeiron> Sounds good.
