It is more an issue of documentation of how quality assurance is done
for Perl. Our procedures for QA require that when doing QA on a model
or program we have created (my ultimate goal), any software used by that
program must also have gone through a sufficiently rigorous QA process.
For other programs I have been able to find documentation on their QA
program that includes standard practices, problem reporting, code
control, records management, etc. They also have documentation
describing the V&V tests performed with tolerances and results outlined.
This is probably a good place to start:
http://perldoc.perl.org/perlpolicy.html
followed by:
http://perldoc.perl.org/perlhack.html
I wish you the very best of luck, especially with successfully
communicating what it is that you mean by QA to open source people who,
mostly, have never worked on safety-critical systems!
