Re^4: IPC::Open, Parallel::ForkManager, or Sockets::IO for parallelizing?

I'm willing to try making a bug report. Is there an alternate approach to raising a ticket, other than that link?

The self-censored comment: I ask because the link offered goes not to a web page or web site but a "web app", and a broken "web app" at that. After 10 minutes of faffing about with broken "web app", I was able to create an account and log in. However, after an additional 15 minutes I was not able to make any headway in actually getting a complete web form in order to report a bug let alone actually report a bug. I enjoy Perl a lot and am really grateful for all the knowledge here here but have zero tolerance for javascript, especially when it is abused to block what used to be a simple activity. :(

"Is there an alternate approach to raising a ticket ..." Take a look at "How to use rt.cpan.org". It provides a variety of information including bug reporting; the email option may be more to your liking. There's links to other information which may help you with problems that you're experiencing. I've raised quite a few bug reports over the years but always used email; I can't provide any direct help with the "web app" you describe. — Ken	[reply]

RT certainly used to be fine with JS disabled. Perhaps there has been some change in that regard. Anyway, from the RT homepage: To submit a bug report for a given distribution by email, send mail to bug-<distribution-name>@rt.cpan.org, where "<distribution-name>" is something like DBIx-SearchBuilder or Class-DBI or Acme-Current-Forever. Use search to find name of a distribution. In this case the distribution name is `ParallelUserAgent` PS. The direct link to create a ticket for any dist is here. 🦛	[reply]

To be clear, RT.cpan.org does not work with javascript fully enabled either. At scale, if there is a low threshold for reporting bugs then there will be bug reports and if there is a high threshold then there won't be bug reports. I'd like for there to be a relatively smooth and problem free path for bug reporting so that the project can survive. In this case the distribution name is `ParallelUserAgent` Thanks, though it may take some time to figure out the way through.	[reply] [d/l]
