Yes.

Absolutely. Anyone who would like to is quite welcome to work on this. I don't even think it's too much work. The Devel::Cover side of things is all in place and available in the distribution. What is missing is some way of transfering the coverage datbase from one machine to another. Merging the databases and producing the consolidated web page should already work. I had wanted to store more information about the environments in which the coverage was obtained, and to display that in the report, but that it not essential for a first cut. -- Paul Johnson - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.pjcj.net
