Merged into trunk in r41508. A Smolder report of tests done just before the merge is viewable at http://smolder.plusthree.com/app/public_projects/report_details/3830. The coding standards test failures were addressed before the merge. I'll allow a couple days for road testing, then resolve the t

I think that many of the things you say are interesting, but they are part of a much broader discussion. In a conversation I had with particle and chromatic at YAPC, particle indicated that we would be revisiting the design of our configuration at a point before 1.0. So what I'm doing now is larg

Last weekend tetragon and I had considerable discussion on #parrot about this problem. My diagnosis was that we should not be handling command-line options at all in 'hints' files; they should be handled in inter::progs. The patch attached removes options handling from config/init/hints/darwin.pm
