I'm +1 for this. I'm also +1 for recommending `.rakudoc` instead of `.pod6`. At least, for documentation files related to raku; what I mean by that caveat will become clear if you consider Pod6Lite, as discussed in the reddit comment I link below. > I think that POD6 is neither Plain, nor Old. How about RDM? Please read this related reddit comment (and, optionally, the earlier reddit comment it then links to): https://www.reddit.com/r/rakulang/comments/qwqpag/ podlite_ver_020_autocomplete_and_pod6_snippets/hlzbtfq/ (This latest reddit comment was written in the context of discussing Pod6Lite's name, but it's mostly about Raku's use of Pod6, not Pod6Lite's.) As you'll see, I propose we suitably backronym "Pod". In other words, stick with "Pod", but switch to new words for the P, o, and d. And I strawman propose "Package of docks" for reasons that will become apparent if you read the reddit comment(s) I've linked. -- love, raiph
