FYI. Damian has agreed to add the Inline grammars to his
Parse::RecDescent regression testing, so that new versions of his stuff
won't break our stuff.
Thanks again Damian!

Hi Damian,
Last week I released version 0.31 of Inline.pm. When I posted the
announcement to c.l.p.a, I found it mildly interesting that you had just
announced P::RD 1.80 at almost the same time. The next day, someone from
a far off country had problems installing Inline ('make test' failed).
Other than the fact that Inline rarely fails installation (especially on
Linux) I thought little of it. Until, that is, during the lucid 10
minutes of trying to wake up the next morning when I suddenly screeched,
"Omagod! The new Parse::RecDescent busted my grammar! Aaaak." I
scrambled to the keyboard and ran all the tests. Phew. Damian rocks. How
could I have doubted him?
But I got to thinking. Maybe you could add the Inline grammar to your
test harness. Or maybe you could just try installing Inline before
shipping. Or maybe you could let me know when you are gearing up for a
new release, and I could test all of the Inline related modules.
I'd appreciate your consideration and feedback.
FYI, Since I'm working on a project to get ActiveState's CPAN holdings
up to date, I checked my indeces and found that (as of a little while
back), 4 modules depend on Parse::RecDescent:
Inline
Inline::CPP
Lingua-EN-NameParse
RFC_RFC822_Address
Cheers, Brian
