This week in PSC (179) | 2025-02-14
Back to the full roster, albeit with Philippe attending from on the road.
We mainly went over the list of PPCs, with an eye toward the fact that this release cycle is coming to a close.
- PPC0033 (ampersand method calls) is approved.
- PPC0030 (equ) does not have an implementation ready for this release cycle and PPC0031 (eq:u) is controversial.
- PPC0027 (any/all) is basically accepted other than needing its feature flag naming figured out.
As an aside regarding PPC0027, we reiterated that we would like use feature ':all' to go away if possible. It was never a good idea anyway, but has become untenable with the introduction of feature flags like indirect and bareword_filehandles, which we expect to have many more of in the future. Since their purpose is to be disabled rather than enabled by default, a simple toggling of all features (on or off) is a nonsensical request.
