That's a neat trick.  I've used CruiseControl a little.  I was hoping
damagecontrol might be something similar in Perl, but it's Java too.

The obvious searches on perlmonks.org, cpan.org and Google don't turn
up any Perl continuous integration programs - anyone know of one?  I
know the Java ones can kick off a set of Perl tests, but which Perl
CGI user wants to set up Tomcat?  8-/

But I digress.

I don't know what the arrangements are for "ownership" of namespace.
My guess is that we manage it the way we share seats on trains.

An independent upload to CPAN must be a reasonable thing to do if the
perlunit project can't accommodate you in more useful way.

It might turn out to be less effort overall, and more useful in terms
of getting your code distributed
(e.g. http://packages.debian.org/libtest-unit-perl ), if you add your
runner to the perlunit project itself.  Would you want to do this?
What are the dependencies?  Is it just the one class or are there a
lot of support files to help with the integration side?


I've piped up quick so you don't get the full silence treatment.  I
don't know whether Adam or Piers are still around?  This list has been
quiet for a while, but I would still consider them to be in the
driving seat.

Thanks for dropping in,
