Dear Josts and other CPAN volunteers, Your point about no 'make test' defined for the Perl module Pgreet is well taken. Unfortunately, this module is an set of interfaces for the Perl ecard application Penguin Greetings (http://pgreet.sourceforge.net) and has no use outside of that. So truly substantive tests which do not make use of Penguin Greetings may be impossible. However, I'll see what I can do.
Thank you all for your critical service to the Perl community!! :-) Peace, Edouard :-) ================================== Edouard Lagache Lead Developer, Penguin Greetings http://pgreet.sourceforge.net/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------------ Josts Smokehouse <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote at Wed, 30 Jul 2003 02:13:39 +0000 >This distribution has been tested as part of the cpan-testers >effort to test as many new uploads to CPAN as possible.
