Re^6: Resources for Moose

That wikibook says the author is http://search.cpan.org/~stevan/,

No, that is the author of Moose, and that is me and I have never touched the wikibook, nor has any core Moose developer.

I have asked the author (Evan Carroll) to take it down, but he says no and I am sure he would remove any statement such as the one you suggest. My only recourse is to make sure people know it is not recommended though channels like Perlmonks.

Wait a minute wait a minute, so its not a editable wiki? You cant drop a single line? No, your not understanding. The wikibook is run by Evan Carroll, and NOT by the Moose core development team. Evan has said (see above) that he thinks it still has value, while a fair portion of the core Moose contributors think that he has gotten a number of things wrong and/or incomplete. This has been an ongoing debate since Evan started the wikibook, it is not worth discussing the politics and assorted bullsht that has gone on for years. And it is certainly not worth playing wiki-editing games with Evan to try and put a disclaimer on the front page. In short, it exists, but it is not "official" in any way, shape or form and it is not recommended by the authors and developers of Moose*. You are free to read it (and edit it) all you want, but you should take it with a very VERY large grain of salt. -stvn	[reply]

I'd recomend taking everything EvanCarroll writes with a large grain of salt. Actually the writings of anyone who him/her-self claims he/she is "The most respected person in the whole perl community." are to be taken with an XXL grain of salt. Jenda Enoch was right! Enjoy the last years of Rome.	[reply]
