How Can I Help?

• You can help by taking on an assignment to study a certain number of test files:

  • Not just "code reviewing" -- more "code understanding"

  • Understand the files as they appear in Perl 5 repository

  • Understand how they've been modified in Perl 7 repository for version bump and strict-by-default

  • Test them on all the platforms to which you have access; make sure they PASS on a variety of build configurations

    • unthreaded, threaded, non-debugging, debugging, etc.

• We will train you in how to work with the Perl core distribution!
