I read a lot of documentation for CPAN modules and find a fair few typos. Yet
making patches for the POD is a hassle; I would have to download the archive,
uncompress it, copy the file, fix the typo, generate a patch, and submit it.
Wouldn't it be nice to be able to pull up a text entry box online with the
contents of the POD, fix any typos inline, then submit it to the server which
can generate a patch and perhaps redirect me to rt.cpan.org? I think I'd
submit more doc patches that way.
Ivan, is this something that AnnoCPAN could handle?
Sounds to me like it's technically doable, but I haven't had a lot of
time to do AnnoCPAN hacking lately and I already have a couple of
half-baked new features that I never finished. Of course, patches are
welcome if anyone cares to do it. :-) (If anyone reading this wants to
try, please remember to use the latest CVS version and not the CPAN
release...)
If no one volunteers, I'll keep the idea in mind (I like it!) but I
can't promise anything.
Cheers,
Ivan
