the you are cooking, with gas, right now. :-)
That's great, but I want everyone *else* to use gas, too, so that
modules I write that use, say, Scalar::Util::refaddr, will automatically
be built into PPMs. Since the big bottleneck is apparently
Activestate's challenge in upgrading core modules, this is just one step
in a much bigger process. (I still want an 8xx-latest repository built,
too.)
And to be honest the package could use a bit of a workout so I
encourage people to try it out.
That's a different story -- I'll install it this weekend and see what
happens.
Regards,
David
