No offense, but I think it's finally reached the point where the correction is more annoying than the error. I cringe whenever I see someone use the term "DBIx" not because that term is annoying, but because I know that the next message is going to be a correction. It's clear from context that "DBIx" refers to DBIC. I agree that someone that uses the term "DBIx" looks stupid, but they'll eventually figure it out on their own. Or they won't, and they'll just look dumb forever. Nothing new; this is the Internet after all :) Regards, Jonathan Rockway -- print just => another => perl => hacker => if $,=$" _______________________________________________ List: http://lists.scsys.co.uk/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dbix-class IRC: irc.perl.org#dbix-class SVN: http://dev.catalyst.perl.org/repos/bast/DBIx-Class/ Searchable Archive: http://www.grokbase.com/group/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
