Hi Larry,

 

It’s not up to me. It depends on the maintainers of Finance::Quote.

They are volunteers and have limited time like everybody.

Last time it was 15 months.

That’s why I’m sending instructions for installing a fix without having to wait 
for the maintainers.

 

Regards,

Subject: Fix for stock price fetch from ASX

 

Hi Chris,

 

Thanks for the fast fix on this - much appreciated. 

 

Do you know when this change is likely to be rolled out to CPAN? (no urgency on 
my part - just curious about when I should plan to run the update).

 

Cheers,

 

Larry

Hi,
If you installed the new ASX.pm after my mail below, please do it again as I
left out a line that causes the currency to be omitted when looking up a
stock which begins with X which is not an index, E.g XRO.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
Regards, Chris Good
