some newbie questions about synopsis 5

2006-02-15 Thread H. Stelling
Hello, I've stumbled upon Perl6 a couple of weeks ago and I'm really looking forward to seeing the finished product. Currently, I'm trying to implement a perl-like rules module for Python, and I've got some questions which I think aren't covered in the Synopsis or anywhere else I looked, mostly c

I'd say anything in languages/ should be ignored, because those should be the responsibility of the language maintainer to test. But I've just completed fixing all the broken pods(and a few that aren't invalid bug are broken) except those in languages/, plus languages/t/harness. I haven't com

Next release ...

The next release is delayed a bit, you might already have noticed that. The reason is: GPW (German Perl Workshop) is at the beginning of March, then a hackaton with Audrey will follow. This would collide with the March release. Therefore I've postponed this release until next week. BTW: I'm i

I've checked this in as r11565 but with some cleanup (not everything needed to be in a BEGIN block, etc.). I believe Joshua Isom and myself have also fixed all of the newly caught Pod syntax errors. I'll be closing out this bug momentarily. Cheers, -J -- On Wed, Feb 15, 2006 at 06:44:12PM -050

There were a large number of open and owner-less bugs in the Parrot bug queue (48 after a cleaning up about half a dozen). I've changed the status on all of these bugs to 'new' as it's really not appropriate to have open and ownerless bugs (can we change RT's behavior to stop change the status to

As discussed since quite a time and specced in pdd03, param count mismatches throw an exception. Use :optional or :slurpy args if needed, or just fix function calls and/or .param directives to prevent that error. Below is a list of currently (r11570) failing core tests. Please note that ret
