Somehow I read these as though the original poster was correct --
i.e., one creates a class method for FooClass as either
method greet(Class $class:) { say "Hello!"; }
Yes. That will work, but it's not the recommended solution.
or
method greet(FooClass $class:) { say "Hello!"; }
No. That needs to be:
method greet(FooClass ::class:) { say "Hello!"; }
(as implied by "takes a class as its invocant" in S12).

Are the design documents out of date in this regard? If so, can
someone provide a patch, if not, can someone confirm that the design
documents are correct? (I just happened to be looking at class methods
this past week, which is why I was a little surprised by Luke and
Damian's answers... :-)
Both documents are correct, but S12 is correcter (as you would expect).
