in thread Where is the @ISA array?

Heh. The people listed as parent's authors are major Perl contributors. They could care less about their name appearing in parent's docs. Wasn't at least one of them a Pumpking?

Even base's authors appear in parent's author list, so what you say can't possibly be true.

And I'm not one of those names — I'm not even involved with Perl's development — so even if what you say was true, it not relevant to this discussion.

The whole idea for the creation of parent is to allow you to keep using base. So do so if that's what you want. You sure love to whine about something you said is not a problem involving a module you say you'll never use.

    I still believe that you all should have fixed base instead of polluting the namespace. I don't see your solution doing anything but driving another divide into this already divided language.

    You guys didn't like an error message, so you wrote a whole new CORE module. That's just not good programming no matter how you slice it.
