Ernesto,
I have to agree with chris here.
I am happy to entertain Moose issues that are encountered with Frost
development and I think the initial Frost discussion was useful to the
greater Moose community as well. In fact I would encourage anyone
writing an ambitious module like Frost, that is so tightly bound to
Moose, to come here or IRC and discuss things early in the process so
that they can avoid re-inventing wheels and get some good early
feedback. And actually, I even don't mind if you announce *major*
updates of Frost here, but minor updates (like this one) are not
really appropriate.
But to be honest, I would really prefer that you do not use moose@perl.org
as a mailing list for Frost.
As for MooseX:: modules, they are Moose extensions so they should be
dealt with here.
