The approximate split is that ext/ and lib/ are the things that are just shipped by core, and dist/ and cpan/ are dual-life "shared with CPAN" so avoid the latter. There are a few small exceptions, so not quite everything in lib/ is fair game. My suggestion would be to consult the list in the file https://github.com/Perl/perl5/blob/blead/Porting/Maintainers.pl for files claimed by the _PERLLIB entry. -- Paul "LeoNerd" Evans leonerd@leonerd.org.uk | https://metacpan.org/author/PEVANS http://www.leonerd.org.uk/ | https://www.tindie.com/stores/leonerd/Thread Previous
