The following people are known to have contributed the +improvements that became Perl 5.18.4: + +Daniel Dragan, David Mitchell, Doug Bell, Father Chrysostomos, Hiroo Hayashi, +James E Keenan, Karl Williamson, Mark Shelor, Ricardo Signes, Shlomi Fish, +Smylers, Steve Hay, Tony Cook. + +The list above is almost certainly incomplete as it is automatically generated +from version control history. In particular, it does not include the names of +the (very much appreciated) contributors who reported issues to the Perl bug +tracker. + +Many of the changes included in this version originated in the CPAN modules +included in Perl's core. We're grateful to the entire CPAN community for +helping Perl to flourish. + +For a more complete list of all of Perl's historical contributors, please see +the F<AUTHORS> file in the Perl source distribution. + +=head1 Reporting Bugs + +If you find what you think is a bug, you might check the articles recently +posted to the comp.lang.perl.misc newsgroup and the perl bug database at +http://rt.perl.org/perlbug/ . There may also be information at +http://www.perl.org/ , the Perl Home Page. + +If you believe you have an unreported bug, please run the L<perlbug> program +included with your release. Be sure to trim your bug down to a tiny but +sufficient test case. Your bug report, along with the output of C<perl -V>, +will be sent off to [email protected] to be analysed by the Perl porting team. + +If the bug you are reporting has security implications, which make it +inappropriate to send to a publicly archived mailing list, then please send it +to [email protected]. This points to a closed subscription +unarchived mailing list, which includes all the core committers, who will be +able to help assess the impact of issues, figure out a resolution, and help +co-ordinate the release of patches to mitigate or fix the problem across all +platforms on which Perl is supported. Please only use this address for +security issues in the Perl core, not for modules independently distributed on +CPAN. + +=head1 SEE ALSO + +The F<Changes> file for an explanation of how to view exhaustive details on +what changed. + +The F<INSTALL> file for how to build Perl. + +The F<README> file for general stuff. + +The F<Artistic> and F<Copying> files for copyright information. + +=cut + diff --git a/pod/perldiag.pod b/pod/perldiag.pod index bae6e4e..3c17a14 100644 --- a/pod/perldiag.pod +++ b/pod/perldiag.pod @@ -970,6 +970,13 @@ unable to locate this library.
