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.

Patch to support SSM registration

Hi,

I'm working on IP multicast and have written a patch to support SSM registration (used with IGMPv3 to specify IP flow source).

It adds support of the IP_ADD_SOURCE_MEMBERSHIP and IP_DROP_SOURCE_MEMBERSHIP socket options.

How do I submit my patch for review/testing ?

Thanks.

GreenSkol.

Re: Patch to support SSM registration

Unfortunately, the honest answer is "it depends."

Sometimes, there is a section at the bottom of the module docs that explains this, but not for IO::Socket::Multicast.

Failing that, you can try looking up the module in search.cpan.org. When I do this, I get http://search.cpan.org/~bramble/IO-Socket-Multicast-1.11/. That page, in turn, generally has a link on where to submit bugs. In this case, it points to rt.cpan.org. So one thing to try is to submit your patch there. A look says that there are some _old_ open bugs, but that the latest submission got a response from both Andrew Bramble and Adam Kennedy.
