Who are you expecting to do that? Perl is developed by volunteers. And the number of active developers is vanishingly small compared to the number of people who use Perl every day. Volunteers generally work on what they find interesting or stimulating or challenging. This is not always the case of course, people have their own motives. Maybe you are sufficiently motivated to work on improving perldoc? It would appear that most people aren't. Since Perl is open source, you have the usual options if you want something done: 1. Do it yourself. 2. Get someone else to do it. 3. Wait. Often the best way to get someone else to do something for you is to pay them. Yes, this is all a little simplistic, but the principles hold. -- Paul Johnson - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.pjcj.net -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <http://learn.perl.org/> <http://learn.perl.org/first-response>
