So I had a quick look at the docs (for the first time in many years - I
found them at http://search.cpan.org/~hkclark/Catalyst-Manual/) to see if I
could see what this is all about. The answer to Dermot's question is there
but it it's a bit obscured by the CGI.pm combatability aspect - that was
very important at the start of Catalyst's life (because most users would be
coming from there) but probably isn't so much any more. In particular, as
mentioned above, Catalyst/Manual/Intro.pod#Query_Parameter_Processing really
only talks about the req->param() interface. I propose that all references
to the req->param() interface should be replaced by references to the
$c->req->parameters->{} interface except where explicit discussions of
CGI.pm compatability are appropriate, which would only be very briefly in
the case of the Intro.

+1 Agree.

I'm afraid I don't know how to do this but if someone
sends me a pointer to instructions I'll have a go at making a doc patch or
whatever's appropriate.

Well volunteered! Check out:

http://dev.catalyst.perl.org/repos/Catalyst/Catalyst-Manual/5.80/trunk/

And either make changes and stick a diff in the RT queue, or stop by #catalyst-dev on irc and ask for a commit-bit to commit your changes yourself :)

Cheers
