Even if the fixes turn out to be trivial, and even if p5p volunteer to do all the fixing, it doesn't leave a lot of time to get new releases out and settled in. So I think that a) such deprecations in future should only come early in the blead release cycle; b) we should seriously consider backing out for now the two specific Foo'Bar and ~~ deprecations and re-adding them for 5.38.1. -- Never do today what you can put off till tomorrow.Thread Previous | Thread Next
