Schwern and I talked about this last week. pod/perltest.pod was a likely candidate, though Perl QA have been working on Test::FAQ on the Wiki. There's also Test::Tutorial. It's in the core. And where did the p5p FAQ get to? MJD said he was taking it off his website... or do you mean the serious one? No idea. -- c

And where did the p5p FAQ get to? MJD said he was taking it off his website... or do you mean the serious one? Do you mean this? http://simon-cozens.org/writings/p5p-faq If someone wants to become a new champion for it, we can keep it on http://dev.perl.org/perl5. (Another way to enable that would be to merge it into the perl5 sources, and then the website can check it out periodically.) -R
