CGI::Prototype is open source. If you don't like the docs and think it should add things, submit a patch. You've obviosuly spent some time with the framework, so take what you've learned and give it back the the community by adding to the docs. At least you have docs: I learned CGI::Prototype with nothing but source. :)

If you want to learn how things work, you have to understand the Prototype design pattern and Class::Prototype. After that, you shouldn't have to worry about how things happen as long as they do happen.

No matter what you decide, you could be part of the solution rather than carping about what Randal is giving you for free.
