How's this all looking now we're in Feb?
There is still a lot of outdated (or unimplemented?) stuff in assembly
related docs.

I'll admit to being a shy lurker... (and have rudimentary C knowledge, but a
bit low on the elbow grease atm :-/)
Another one, we are getting more and more of them pop up from all over
Ooh, ooh, a chance to leave shy lurker status behind and work on one of

I have some rudimentary C skills and I'm sure there's some elbow grease

Are the docs (especially the PDDs) upto date on best practices?
If not, will that be a goal for the next release?

No, not yet. But I can imagine to have a release in February. It of
course depends on progress WRT objects and threads.

Dammit, and here I was trying to lead by example. It's OK! :)
Smoothing the path for newcommers, of both types, is very important.

I'm currently building some docs related modules which will allow us to
create an html tree from the pod, inline stuff included.
I cleaned up all the pod errors last week and was going to report on
that but got sidetracked when I realised that POD::Checker diverged
somewhat from Perl's own pod
Well, one thing that people can contribute that doesn't require much
(if any) knowledge of the internals is tests (whether in PASM, PIR,

I think that there are a lot of people who would help but the
Ping. One quiet lurker here. I'd like to help out, but not really sure
where to start. Given Dan's suggestion, I think I might start looking at
some more abusive-type tests. Destruction and dissection can be fun. I'd
be happy to help out in other newbie-type ways, too.
