Re: ICU Outdated - Ideas

2004-08-03 Thread Joshua Gatcomb
Ok - so which way do we go? A. Leave it as is B. Upgrade to a bare bones 3.0 C. Upgrade to a full version of 3.0 D. Improve the config/gen/icu.pl with any of the previous options E. Something else entirely? Joshua Gatcomb a.k.a. Gat (240) 568-5675 _

Unicode Support - ICU Optional

2004-08-04 Thread Joshua Gatcomb

parrotbench.pl - massive update

2004-08-25 Thread Joshua Gatcomb
Much greater control using ini configuration 3. Output is "pretty" 4. Lots of bugs squashed (probably more introduced) 5. POD updated 6. Multiple regexes allowed for benchmarks to be run 7. Multiple regexes allowed for benchmarks to be skipped 8. Probably some stuff I am forgetting

Parrot 0.1.0 still?

2004-09-09 Thread Joshua Gatcomb
Divorce internals from interface. 2. Add what's missing. 3. Fix what's broke. 4. Delay optimizing working code in favor of 2 & 3. Since the usual purpose of a point release is to have features finished and bugs squashed, it may be a good time for another release. What say you? Cheer
