I'm finding more lately that I keep thinking up interesting ideas for new features to add to Scalar::Util or List::Util. Given the very core-ish nature of these modules, both literally in the "core" sense and also in that most of CPAN either directly or indirectly uses them, I feel it best not to just go adding things that might or mightnot be a good idea, but instead to first discuss them some more. Rather than get into the specifics of what my ideas are at this stage, I'd like first to open a meta-discussion on where interested parties might be, and what suggestions we'd have for the best place to actually discuss those ideas? I'm loathe to suggest "make a new mailing list" or somesuch, mostly because that likely misses most of the people who'd be interested in it. Partly I might just suggest "these two lists", unless people on either list object to the traffic. I dunno... thoughts anyone?
Have you tried contacting the module author (Graham Barr in both cases) and/or maintainer (Paul Evans for List::Util)?
