I've been meaning to update the PEP Wiki with more useful information, mostly in the form of signposts to would-be contributors or module evaluators. (I'd like to add more information and how-to articles, but I'm running a little short on time, lately.)
I added problems and ideas sections to a number of pages, this morning. You can always see what pages have problems or ideas listed, here: http://emailproject.perl.org/wiki/Category:HasProblems http://emailproject.perl.org/wiki/Category:HasIdeas I think the three most important modules to fix, or at least establish an ideal plan for, are: Email::Simple, Email::Send, and Email::Folder. Email::Simple, here, encompasses most of its many subclasses. It needs to be easier to write plugins, and they need to work in some way that is not just "cram stuff into other packages." http://emailproject.perl.org/wiki/PEP_Plugin_System I've written about Email::Send's problems, before, and I won't go on about them, again, here. I will seriously get Email::Sender committed, such as it is, soon, for comment. Email::Folder was my main point of thinking, this morning. The name promises to be a center of functionality for all things related to managing a collection of messages. Instead, you get a reader, and other functions rely on the "folder represented as a string" idiom of Email::FolderType. Does anybody else want to say anything about this before I start blathering? -- rjbs
