Only remotely related:
- How open is CPAN.pm to pull requests that consist only of refactorings to
reduce the amount of code duplication?
I have no time to think about the real issue, but I'm +1 for
refactoring. I've been doing it where I can when I work on stuff. I'd
be happy to see more of it.
Awesome, thanks for the answer.
*However* -- test coverage is really low, so refactoring can seem safe
but we're operating without a net. I'd love to see someone work up
some good regression testing to support refactoring.
Alright, i love writing tests. A few questions on that though:
- What perl version is targeted by future CPANs?
- What restrictions/procedures lie on pulling in modules beyond what CPAN/core
ship? (Specifically, Capture::Tiny seems indispensible for building up a good
test suite.)
