Hi Johan, hi all,

So I repeat: I do not think the highest priority is to have wxPerl
specific API docs. I think there is a bigger need for user docs and
documented examples.
Fortunately, the volunteer did not interpret my message as
discouraging but considered it valuable feedback.
Personally, the highest ranking item on my Wx wishlist is that someone
(or ideally several someones) went through the pain of learning C++,
wxWidgets, XS (aka C + perlapi + the actual XS bits), and the Wx.pm code
enough to help Mattia maintain the beast. We have a pretty bad bus
factor and I don't think it's fair that we're putting as much pressure
on a fellow volunteer by simply depending on his work this much.
That being said, I have been reading the Wx XS code here and there to
the best of my limited abilities. Progress is slow and distraction is
cheap. :(
Cheers,
Steffen
