I wanted to build an awesome place for people to discuss module specific issues, but I don't have any more time for this, and there are much better places to discuss Perl-related issues. I'd recommend asking your question on Stack Overflow or on Perl Monks.
If you are looking for a Perl tutorial or Perl-related news, I hope these links will serve you well.

cond_timedwait's ABS_TIMEOUT is not explained well enough.
It is not explicitly stated that ABS_TIMEOUT is a value in unix epoch seconds - the reader is left to surmise this from the examples and the explanation about not recalculating it. I missed this distinction on first reading and instead assumed a behavior similar to the timeout of the "select" statement. It would be good to clarify the explanation a little.
