fresh take for perltodo

Nicholas Clark, in the midst of trying to release 5.8.5, has taken the time to update the perltodo.pod file in the development branch of perl, which had gotten out of date to the point of complete inapplicability.

Read it to see some of the directions in store for perl5.

This is my 1000th writeup! Hooray!

This is my 1000th writeup! Hooray! Looks like your 996th to me. Or your 1007th, if you want to count pmdevnotes, which I don't think should be counted. I'd guess that some of the code disagrees with me on this point but hasn't always (though the -7 difference could just be the node cache race condition in action -- if you haven't stumbitted user settings in quite a long time). And I'm not counting patches. Update: I update my theory to thinking that some code agrees with me and some disagrees and that you stumbitted user settings approximately 4 pmdevnotes ago. (And that's without even looking at the code.) - tye	[reply]

Rats! I thought it was stumbitting my home node that did the correction, and I did that just before posting.	[reply]
