I don't believe I insulted anyone; if anything, I was self-deprecating:
1) I saw multiple problems with C<use encoding>, leading variously to
core dumps, panics, baffling exceptions, and odd failures. I fear
some idiocy of my own: that's why I'm shy at formal bug-reporting it.
2) I had next to no end of trouble testing whether $data began with BOM
in either byte-order. My tribulations were so severe I have to wonder
whether I'm not somehow being brain-damaged here as well.
Is there any collective sense of how many bug reports, particularly about
C<use encoding>, this merits?
If non-zero, should I submit just one report detailing several apparent
problems, or would several reports each containing one problem be better?
If it were only a matter of self-education and documentation improvements,
I'd be happy to submit those patches myself--once I finally understood it.
Why then you felt a need to be so insulting, I neither understand nor appreciate.
Nobody would.
