But I know that--when I have a difficult regex problem--the people at perlmonks are more likely to be able to figure out a solution than anyone else.
I consider that a misuse, perhaps even an abuse, of the openness here.
That'd be like saying "I know that most people here probably have apple computers, so I'll post my apple questions here". Seeing questions about Java, with Java's restrictions (even if it is regex), is not the reason I come here. Your task was simple with Perl's regex. Java's regex are different, and thus the answers weren't relevant, but you didn't disclose that at the beginning.
Please mark your questions "off topic" next time, so I can ignore them.
