Congratulations. And it looks like a very good schedule. > During this presentation I hope to: > > 1. Channel pjcj to the best of my ability. Don't you want to aim a little higher? ;-) > 2.

Fell free to take anything that you think might be useful from any of my talks (http://www.pjcj.net/yapc/), and I'm happy to (try to) answer any questions you might have. One thing that might qualify as a coverage trick could be the use of "cover -test" which is probably all that many people will ever want to use (initially at least) and which most people seem not to have heard of. The other thing that's interesting is that the uncoverable stuff is getting closer to being useful, but it's probably not worth setting people up for disappointment yet. -- Paul Johnson - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.pjcj.net
