[Catalyst] Who wants to be rid of the Unknown Error w/attributes bug on 5.10?
Because I know you guys all hate it. Certainly the ones using Catalyst heavily. Well, it's been fixed in bleadperl for a while, but in order to get that out we require a 5.10.1 - and to get a 5.10.1 we needed to fix all the bugs that were in smartmatch in 5.10.0 because not enough of us tested the dev releases. So, rgs has updated the smartmatch POD, and the code, and the tests. Because rgs is wonderful. But given how much trouble we had with the 5.10.0 version it almost certainly wants more tests and the time for being sure of 5.10.1 features draw nigh. So. http://github.com/rjbs/perl-smartmatch-tests/tree/master Here is a repo. Fork it. Try and break it. If you succeed, note how that break departs from the spec. Send pull requests to rjbs as often as you're sure is a good idea so he can keep everybody in sync. Go on. Go!
