It certainly didn't seem to arise as an issue during the > release of 5.20.1 anyway. For what it's worth, this was basically my feeling. Managing maintperl was no trouble, since it was always such a small set of changes. I thought you might feel differently after your (comparitively) big set of safe imports for 5.20. So: I don't mind if somebody has a great solution, but so far I think the solution was not "build a tool" but "make maint much stabler." Thanks, Jesse. :) -- rjbsThread Previous | Thread Next
