>I'd say issue a deprecation warning once we have a schedule were the feature is removed, and replaced by something else.
I think in the case of barewords the replacement feature has been present in Perl for a while...
Instead of
print hello;
you should, in the new way of doing things, write
print 'hello';
>Deprecation does not mean "I don't like the style, so other shall not use it".
Indeed not. It may however be a case of: nobody whatsoever uses this style, and so it is not doing any good to keep it (while it does cruft up the language somewhat). Hence this request. To reiterate: I am *asking* whether anybody uses barewords. If they are still used, then close this bug and keep them.
