At least as originally proposed by project leader Andy Lester, Phalanx was supposed to focus on *non-core*,
Not exactly. I just figured it's easier for teams to submit tests back to individual authors than back to Perl itself. Also, those patches are more likely to get out into the mainstream, than having to get put into bleadperl and then into 5.8.x.
the single most difficult thing has nothing to do with code, tests or coverage; it's getting the author to give you feedback once you've submitted your proposed revisions.)
It's funny, because the FIRST most difficult thing was getting anyone to write any code. That was a year ago.
Now, your observation is unfortunately so. For example, Chicago.pm did some great work on HTML::Tree (I think) and gave the patches to Sean Burke, but Sean has yet to do anything with them. As an author who has lots of modules that he maintains, I totally understand why that might be.
